paulgrover68 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Had a pair of unforecasted clear nights. It was mid week and I hadn't planned anything so though I'd go M8. It's tricky for me as it's low and I have water tower due south that is just too tall for this and the helix nebula to clear. The framing is a bit off, when I was supposed to be doing all that I was too busy admiring Jupiter on my visual rig. Wednesday's seeing was outstanding. I was very rusty though... Made a good few mistooks! Altair Wave 130EDT / ASI294MC-Pro / Optolong L-eNhance. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulgrover68 Posted August 7, 2021 Author Share Posted August 7, 2021 (edited) Thanks everyone - it was just a great feeling to be back out there. I had three nights last week including a Friday. The mistooks were all of the comedic variety - wondering why the mount wasn't responding - not connect to ASiAir. Still not responding... left the power lead on the kitchen table. I have to say doing a little bit of visual + 3 imagings sessions has re-energised me, it was just what I needed.

Dmack1 Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Thats a super image Paul. Im jealous. Astro Dark is just back here so I'm "chomping at the bit" to get a clear night and get out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
