Mercury on Easter Sunday (whilst out checking if the Easter Bunny had come).
13 degrees above the horizon at 7.7 arcseconds in size. The first image is as per stacked, with the pretty atmospheric chromatic abberation, and the second is RGB corrected.

Thanks for looking,

Tom

nice job Tom, a tough shot to get no doubt!
was the correction just an RGB align? or was it a bit more complex than that?

Cheers,

Russ

Ah it's Mercury season again hey? No hope for me, blasted trees..

Great work Tom. An RGB shift should be doable.
