Questions for Planetary Photographers
I'm curious how your planetary imaging sessions run.
Occasionally I'll hear people say 'there was some good seeing around midnight, so I took this shot of Jupiter'.
I guess my own sessions consist of a long interval dedicated to setup/swearing, then I'll image whatever planets I can see for about an hour, then I'm done. The seeing is whatever happened to be the case during that 1 hour interval. After that, I'll reconfigure for visual or for DSO imaging because I want to see/do more stuff.
So do you guys just kind of sit on the one planet all night like a fisherman waiting for a bite?
Wondering if I should try this approach.
