Aug 27 2021 - Really good seeing!

Post by Simon2940 »

Got some really good seeing today, better than what I have seen on other days. There was moments of 5/5 for sure. Here are the results after I had to recover the hard drive that managed to get stuck with the USB format me now error.

I did both HA with the Daystar Gemini in Chromo Mode and White Light with the Baader Solar Continuum filter with the Sky-Watcher EvoStar 150

A fabulous set, Simon. Great seeing is 50% of the results, in my opinion.

50 ?? More like 85%. You have bad data, no amount of processing will save the image. :lol:

Great images, Simon. The finely resolved spicule layer on the limb shows just how good your seeing conditions were.
