Oct 1st 2021 - Clouds finally moved on

Post by Simon2940 »

With all the smoke and clouds, I haven't been able to do a thing and today is the first time in ages we had clear skies. Not only that, good seeing as well! Shot using a 150mm refractor and a thing that you plug in.

WoW, Simon! Your images never cease to amaze me. The detail is phenomenal. Just look at the detail in the SW prominence. Far more than I could see visually in my little SMII60.

TWO thumbs up!!
