Hi:
Went to the rural observatory for the weekend, but just did some imaging on Saturday and the seeing was very shaky, so I did take some in Ha, some in white light and a couple with a G band filter (430nm).
Spent a lot of time fixing cables, balancing the 3 mounts, etc...
Used the 6" f/12 AP refractor and the Daystar ATM, a Baader Herschel wedge with a continuum filter and with a G band one too, and the 76mm TeleVue f/6.4 with stacked 40mm Coronado filters for the FD.
Thanks for looking and wish you all a nice starting week.
Eric.

Alexandra, Valery and Maurits, thanks for looking and commenting.
Valery, hope that soon can I try the full size Aries ERF, I am still working on a simple filter cell that I am making that can be used on the 10" f/20 Maksutov, and also with the 12" f/10 Meade SCT.
Both scopes are mounted on the same equatorial mount that is an AP 1200 GoTo on which I have been working (lubricating the gears, adjusting them and rebalancing the system and changing some cables that go to the hot room).
Best regards to all,
Eric.

A great session with beautiful results, Eric. 2733 came out very sharp. I enjoyed that a lot.
