Lovely sun this morning but intermittent cloud's hampering imaging session. Only able to acquire ha full disk so far. Have a good weekend peps.

Nice shot of the rig Nigella, I'm on the wrong side of the cloud today. Was a glorious sunrise earlier but it just clouded over since then. I'm primed ready to go, but not feeling optimistic...

Thanks Franco, it's making life a lot easier now. I can be up and running in ten minutes which is great. Tracking is spot on and can track for hours.

Thanks Mark, I'm struggling now with clouds but just sitting waiting to see if there's anymore clear spots. Hope you get some too.

That's a wonderful setup Nigella. You are using the same ZWO cameras I have! Nice dome! Those trees and bushes are really close by though.

Hello Nigella, thanks for the head's up and the observatory images. A very nice set-up you have.

Out of actions this end, so can only follow some posts.

Thanks, thankfully the bush I can keep on top of but the tree's belong to the church, lol.

Thanks pep's, the dome has only just been used for the first time this week for solar imaging so pleased the way it's gone.

Nice setup you've put together there. Now just for the weather to cooperate and you're good

Thanks Rainer, it's so much easier now particularly when I see a break in the clouds, lol.

Too much cloud here for any solar work...time for DIY jobs around the house and garden.

That’s a cracking setup, Nigella.

Stu.
