First Venus
Hi all,
this is my first attempt at Venus and I think I need to get a venus filter. This planet is so bright in my scope that it hurts my eyes looking through an EP. Well not really, but it is very bright.
Settings
1/50 sec
Gain 0
Gamma 0
Saturation 60%
10 fps
Brightness 50%
Seeing based on over head check first 7/10. At Venus' altitude seeing was at best poor, maybe around 4/10.
I rechecked my collimation after I took this shot and found that it was slightly out. I did not bother reshooting Venus as it was very low and looked like it was in a washing machine.
Comments welcome, suggestions respected.
