FD and prominence 11/01/2020

Post by salvo lauricella »

This morning was sunny day (just for some hours), so I had the possibility to take some photos. I used the Lunt 60 for the FD and a Powermate 2,5x for the prominence. Always the same camera: Grasshopper3. Have a nice weekend.

Nice and crisp looking images, Salvo.

Glad to hear you a few hours of clear skies. Still cloudy over here unfortunately.

Hi Salvo...

Excellent images and the scale markers really demonstrate how big the features are (even though they appear small).

Well done :bow
