Prom Animation in Poor Seeing
Here is a very brief prom animation taken Tuesday in fairly poor seeing. I always hesitate to present sub-par work here. But since I will be on hiatus likely till late March, this might be my last opportunity! Please click for sharper view.

Snuck a Session In Before the Deep Freeze
I thought my season was over, but predictions of its termination were premature. Well, the temperature was around 0 to 2º Celsius. My hands got numb over the course of the session (I should get some hand warmers). Since there were no major sunspots to speak of, I concentrated on proms. The sun was s...

AR2602 in Below Average Seeing!
What a bad seeing day it was today (Oct 14th). Out of 65 frames, 3 survived my initial screening, 2 of which made it into the mosaic below. The general seeing was 1-2/5. These two latter frames were about 2.5-3/5. Actually, the seeing improved mildly 15 minutes before the sun went behind a tree, so ...

My Most Detailed Mosaic Ever in Very Good Seeing
These images were taken on the 11th of October of ARs 2599 & 2600. Although the seeing for the first part of the session (when I did the animations) was very variable, it improved considerably when I did imaging for mosaics (4-4.5/5). Here are the results. The first mosaic is likely the best one...
