Hello everybody: today a mid afternoon session. Experimenting large aperture with the new FLIR Grasshopper 3: conditions were not right for it, but I tried anyway . Also, this camera gets Newton rings, this is the only image that did not show them. There was a small but interesting prom. Fun afternoon !

Very nice Franco. You have significant resolution here. What scope did you use?

[MAURITS]

Beautiful Franco, sharp and detailed.

Thank you, James and Maurits, for your comments. The close up was with the HaT/Combo Quark, the second one the SM90 single stack stopped down to 70mm.

Wow!! that really is a cracking shot have you ever tried Pattern suppressor to remove the NRs, I find it works great with the Chameleon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FDM4lEw65j0

Wow, excellent details. I took my scope out Sunday, and for the first time in a while (cold weather), I enjoyed watching and imaging with my Lunt. Nothing compared to your images
