Lemmon & Panstarrs Feb28 Wow!!

[tilbrook@rbe.ne]

Hi,

A small window between sunset and moon rise, well worth the effort!

Panstarrs is brilliant!! Viewed it through the 80mm finder, then with the unaided eye.
The head of panstarrs looks a little strange even visually, wonder whether it's becoming disrupted??

(Left) The single 1 minute sub at iso 800 40mm f/5, canon 1100D on trcking mount.
(Right) 7 x 1 minute subs, iso 800 and 1600, stacked in DSS processed in PS7.

Justin Justin Justin, Lemmon Pantarrs, Lemmon Panstarrs :rolleyes: ;)
You must be the Envy of every Southern Hemisphere Astro-liano ? I chalk another one up for You :thumbsup: This is another great Capture champ ! !

We, SE Qld should see some clear sky soon, approx a week I so hope, if so, Panstarrs will unfortunately have sunk fast into dangerous twilight :| But Lemmon will be still the 'Go' !

Dig them two tails pointing same direction, great Compo :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Nice work Justin, I thought about doing a widefield tonight, but couldn't bring myself to take the 80mm scope off the mount :D

Thanks Andrew!

Glad you did'nt, it's good to have the different perspectives. I'm going to image Panstarrs, with the 8" astrograph friday.

Cheers,

Justin.
