Taken this morning before 09:00 EST. Hopefully they will be directly inline with the path of Mercury come Thursday morning.
Currently I am unable to setup my gear due to an injured back, so I must thank my fabulously wonderful wife for carrying my mount and scope up onto the back verandah and setting everything up for me.
I'll make an astronomer out of her yet.
First frame is prime focus ED80 and SAC 4.2 , full frame @ 18 fps but reduced from 1280>1000 wide in processing. The second frame is with 2X barlow and imaged using ROI @ around 25 fps. All images captured as RAW and converted to AVI with Catch 42
Seeing was pretty
maybe 2/10. Ya get that
