I was hoping to get a good high res half disc but ended up with a lot of bad frames. Even though seeing was 4/5, it was in constant flux and a lot of the data was just blurred and unusable in the end.

I hardly call this a failure. What you did capture is just wonderful. This is so far above my visual views. Two thumbs up!!

What superb detail!! 
During my last two attempts at imaging the seeing was so mushy I couldn't even achieve sharp focus. <sniff>
