SPX350 F41.3, PGRFlea3, Baader RGB filters.

Another clear promising night with a perfect airy disc with nice symmetrical diffraction rings appearing when collimating on a star.

Patchy cloud kept coming in from the East and evaporating and getting in the way and reducing seeing conditions. I managed to get over an hour of images until major cloud swept in for the night at 11pm.

Managed some good detail in the images and my first view of Sinus Sabaeus this season with a tantalising glimpse of Syrtis Major moving off the disc.

Regards, John.

Almost traversed the entire globe now John, you continue to produce the goods and give us incentive to get the most out of our scopes, well done again.
