Hi All,
Imaged Jup this morning in reasonable conditions, have attached an RGB & 807nm IR image, strewth, still recovering from checking out Birds incomparable masterpiece.
Lining up tonight for my 6th straight imaging session, hope to get the storm merger just after midnight.
Thanks for looking.
Regards
Trevor
PS: Just how lucky are we in OZ to have such world class imagers as Bird.

I'd be happy with that Trevor. Well done! Reasonable seeing here tonight - pity it's 80% cloud cover..Ah well, it'll happen here eventually - I just hope I'm still alive when it does lol..:lol:

Hi Trevor, your image is outstanding, thanks for the view. All the best with your long run of nights imaging. Only been getting about one night per 3 weeks here and then nowhere near 6/10.
Thanks Trev - it's great to see your images,
cheers, Bird

Thanks John, don't you hate it when the jetstream charts look good, you have stable air to image through but the clouds spoil it.
Thanks very much Matt, at the moment it looks like the clouds will arrive before midnight but hey, I am pleased with the amount of data I have been able to capture over the past week.
Thanks very much Lester, its looking like this run is over, might be a good thing, could sure use some sleep.
Thanks very much for the encouragement Bird.

Things have changed here Trevor since my last post - It is now 100% free of cloud.....With rubbish seeing. I shall now continue to polish my car in the shed...:(

Very tidy Trev, Love your colours. You must be busting for some good seeing.

Great work again Trevor. 6 nights in a row! I don't know how you do it.
I hope you get the perfect conditions your after, you certainly deserve it.

Sorry to hear about that John, but on the "BRIGHT" side, reckon you must have the shiniest car in South East Queensland.
Thanks David, yes, looking forward to some great seeing in Sept for opposition.
Thanks Michaell, it has been so crook since the end of June that nowdays, if I can see Jup I get out there and image it regardless.
I am confident that the worm will turn and that its just a matter of time before the level of seeing that has been the norm out here for the last 3 years returns. Really just need the jetsteam to bugger off.
