27-4-2021 CLEAR SKIES PREVAIL WITH 3-LIGHTS TOO...

Post by EGRAY_OBSERVATORY »

Well here in S.E.England at least, no rain and this afternoon was more or less cloud-free, but with a thin haze-layer and a turbulent atmosphere.

But at least, I was able to take advantage of the advice given-me by our SolarChat colleagues, which is great and a special-thanks vm to those who have helped me improve... :hamster: :hamster: :hamster: :hamster: :hamster: :hamster:

So with all three scopes doing what they were meant for and the Mount (SkyWatcher AZ-EQ6 Pro) operating perfectly, the attached show what can be done with these and today - mainly concentrating on getting some sharp-captures of the mammoth set of Sun-spots (and some proms), ready for trying-out some of those recommendations for processing and presenting the results here. :band

Thanks for looking
Terry
