Catch up 24th April 2021

Post by Montana »

If I can remember right this was an afternoon session in desperation over the neighbour's house. The seeing was dire but I was surprised a few images came out OK.

Solarscope DSF100, Grasshopper 3 (full disc) and I think a 1.6x Barlow for the close ups and I used ROI to zoom in.
