Nice one, Alex:thumbsup:

A nice morning in Bris...if a tad breezy.

I got excited when I saw the clear blue sky this morning...only to check the maps and see atmospheric conditions don't look flash for tonight:(

I'd like to get some more good Jupiter data before the show's over for another year.

Man... do as I do... Battle it out with okish seeing...

Last week I got a few shots at 6.1M FL that came out pretty good.. (my best yet by far.) All is not lost... its just not perfect..

Nice work, Alex. Lovely image.

I have to agree, that is a fine image Alex.

Beautiful image Alex, lovely detail on the Moon.

:thumbsup:

[AlexN]

Thanks guys.. I was actually pretty impressed that the moon came out as well as it did... I thought it would be too washed out, but a touch of editing and it came out fairly contrasty..

Er...yeah.

Trawl back through images I've produced over the last few years and posted here and you'll see that's exactly what I have done.

You keep on battling. I'll keep an eye on conditions and go from there:thumbsup:

No offence...it's just horses for courses.

Having said that, I've set up tonight even though all the indicators are suggesting it's not going to be too good.

It just means I may not bother processing the data.

[AlexN]

will do... communicating to you right now from 1m away from my scope/mount :) Im ready to fire it all up as soon as 3 alignment stars show themselves :)
