A couple of proms from June 16

Post by gabrieli »

My mount is having some issues. When I try to correct for tracking drift in declination using with a low setting, there is no movement when I press the arrow key and then there is a sudden motion as if it was saving up all the previous key presses. Time to adjust the backlash and relubricate the gears.(I've already updated the firmware)

The proms are again putting on a show. Here are 2 of them.

I saw these today but your images resolve more than my eye could see and certainly more than my iPhone could photograph. I love your vibrant choice of colors!
