20230603 h-alpha LS40

Post by EricF »

Up early this morning. Sun was about 35 degrees up at 9:15am local time. Temperature was 20C, and still cool inside the dome. Seeing was not bad, but lots of birds going by in the distance.

Lunt LS40 with 2x barlow and ASI174 mini. ASICap, Registax, Affinity Photo.
