Nice image Sebastian, I know well how difficult it is to image Mercury in daylight.

How long a video did you take? My experience has been that Mercury responds well to long stacks, as it is not rotating rapidly. I would usually take 15000 frames and stack 30% or so...

Keep it up.

PS. also have a go at a red filter -- even with a colour ccd, it can help with wobbly seeing.
