2022 11 06 - before the rains arrive

Post by Simon2940 »

I had to get a session in before the rain hits. Looks like its going to be a wet winter here in California. Believe me, we need it. It's been so dry here even the rocks are drier than usual.

Seeing was horrific maybe 3/5 at best. 12 panel mosaic. Shot with the 204mm achromat, Quark with PST mod and Player One Apollo MAX.

Nice pictrures.


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

Beautiful :bow :hamster: well, you have had a good run but we do need rain occasionally. Pity we can't just arrange it to rain every night time and have wonderful sunny days ;) but then the dark side people would complain :lol:
