Yes, myself and Fiona enjoyed looking at them this afternoon when we were out in the garden, they were quite dynamic, subtly changing quite visibly over every 5 minutes.

I was wondering Pedro, which do you prefer; your Lunt 152 or Tec140 with the Quark?

Hi Mark

I prefer the LUNT152, but now I'm using the TEC140 to image the sun and moon

The Quark I'm using is not bad but the filed is not uniform

I will change to the LUNT152 when the sun picks up

best regards

Good logic. You can never have too many scopes ;)
