View Full Version here: : toucam first light in 2/10 seeing
lol, i had to pick a really bad night for my first light didnt I! :lol:
oh well, never mind. the large joop and the moon were my toucam shots taken in about 2-3/10 seeing (horrid, ask matty), and the small joop is just a reworked lpi shot from good seeing.... wish i had that last night :(
oh, did i mention the transparency was aroune the 1-4/10 mark! I am suprised i got anything! :P
the moon is slightly over processed tho, i realise that. it can be fixed but i couldnt be bothered atm :P

Nice work David! The moon shot is great!
Pity about the seeing. There's always next time :)
thanks, hanging out for next time now :)
Still very nice images Vingo !
It's always good to get some practice so you'll be ready for the corker !

Onya Davo! :)
"Seeing"... or lack of it, has been a right-royal PITA these past few days. I was looking forward to doing some more tonight and ... well... the clouds have already rolled in....
AARRGGHhhhhhh!!! :doh:

I would suggest that your work will quickly escalate to the very top of the heap, as a Toucam extraordinaire :thumbsup:
Nice work Vingster:thumbsup:
I also captured a few AVIs this morning and the result is about the same.
Bring on some good seeing!!!!!!!!!!;)
