Another hobby ..
I swear I'm gonna have to get another hobby. This non-stop persistent cloud cover is doing my head in. I've just about run out of 'projects' to do and I'm stalled waiting to carry on learning this mono imaging stuff with the new camera.

I am in the same boat.
I have stopped work on my observatory box cause I have become demotivated cause of cloud.
When able I plan moving way inland.

Meh, the Tak and mount can sit it out another spring/summer if need be - if they don't get used, they don't get used. Whatever.
In the meantime, I've got plenty of other things occupying me.

Haha, nah, I got you guys to entertain me.
I have done photography for the last 40+ years, semi professionally in some cases, motor sports, weddings. The ebike thing comes and goes as customers come and go. Not a big TV fan, prefer practical stuff.
I'll keep busy, just a bit frustrated by it all at present.

What about drawing or sculpting.
I find both these very satisfying.
Then there is playing music and if you have never tried it will present a wonderful challenge.
Or collecting gold coins can be fun.

Best processed as RAW images? Will a field flattener help?

You'll need a focal reducer to fit all of me in. Add Mike into the image, and you'll need a hyperstar.
