26.07.2021 Today's features through speckled overcast.

Post by Rusted »

It has been mostly, solid overcast with a few teasers between rare plates of speckles.
I have lowered the power a little with a 1.6x camera GPC and 912x912 frame size.
unfortunately this finds the PST etalon's sweet spot just off the frame at top right.
These just go to show that you can't always trust cloud to spoil the day. ;)
