Saturday Sun 3rd June 2023

A beautiful day and some quite good seeing conditions at the start. Not perfect, but not dire either.

I started with the 150 mm for some close views of the main ARs in Ha:

and the large prominence:

Then on to 'white light' at 430 nm (Lacerta wedge, Tecnosky 125)

..and finally CaK (modified Lunt module, Tecnosky 125) under worsening conditions

I do not look at the sky with the eyes of an astronomer, but of a person looking for the beauty of nature.

I feel your pain, Alexandra. It’s so disappointing when we have blue skies, with poor seeing :roll: :roll:

Thanks, Mark. Too few bits of good seeing, regrettably :roll: :roll:
