Quick Disk After Work 20th June

[marktownley]

Warm hazy skies greeted me as I left work earlier, not ideal sky conditions but better than a poke in the eye, so I decided to get the DS50 out for a peruse. Visually the haze wasn't too bad, imaging wise it lifted the sky background and took a bit of contrast. The sun is still nice and busy!

Fingers crossed the sky is a bit better tomorrow morning before work and i'll take a peek then too...

Hope you like!

Hi Mark,

Thanks for posting.

My trial with a 1.25" 2x ES TE and bare PST etalon, standard following filters, on the Rumak180 gave me similar details to your image.

Cheers. Andrew.

Very nice disk, Mark. Some of the proms and filaments seem to be the same as the past days, not a lot of change.

Nice disk Mark considering the conditions, the skies just got worse and worse throughout the day here, not the predicted forecast

Mark,
At least there are some interesting features to observe. Regards John W.

Same sky here, Mark; really milky until late afternoon.
You got a nice result. Lovely FDs. There’s a good level of activity currently.

Hi Mark,

Great job. A lot going on and me under clouds and no rain

Nice image. Looks like the disk is getting calmer again in some days.

Very nice FD, Mark! These smaller scopes are really nice for a quick session when the conditions are sub-optimal.

Best regards,
Arne
