Friday 2nd June'21 Captures

Post by EGRAY_OBSERVATORY »

In between the "white fluffy stuff" and less than perfect seeing, managed to capture something of the action.

Thanks for looking
Terry

Thanks Terry for the views. I am waiting for the clouds to clear, It's overcast at the moment.

Thank you James, Dan and chris.
I hope James you get a chance to see this (apparently 20 spot) AR, as both visually and imaging-wise is a nice and interesting capture.

Yes Dan, I agree that due to the less than good weather, it was difficult to get decent views in Ha and CaK, where my primary-aim, was to try-out
X2, X2.5 and X5 Barlow's for that particular scope, but the limit seems to be around 4X (if I had one).

Need a better seeing to retry the same performance-testing though...

I note that the SDO image captured only an hour or so earlier is almost identical to my capture albeit theirs' is a FD.

When the new scope arrives (hopefully in July), that might change, as well as possibly a new camera to follow for WL.
