I'm on vacation this week so I managed to observe and image for several hours today with two separate rigs. Since I had the CEM25 EQ mount up and running, I also attempted my first prom animation. I had a bunch of bad frames due to clouds, so it isn't as smooth as I would have liked, and getting that blackout disk in place across all the layers was tedious. I'll have to research a bit on a better way to do this.
Approximately 2 hours @ 30s intervals.

Nice shots and your animation came out great! Clouds and variable seeing can play havoc with an animation since you are speeding the action up so any variation between the images is noticeable. One suggestion would be to reduce the brightness of the proms a little so you can see more fine details throughout.
