Hi John

I noticed from the jet stream map that Brisbane was on the edge of the nastier stuff, whereas Bundaberg was right in the thick of it.

I used every trick in the book in an attempt to tame the seeing, but it really wasn’t worth the CPU cycles and crunching of AVI’s through AVIStack.

In the end, I eyeballed the live screen and started recording in the better moments whilst pausing in the really wobbly moments. I kept this up until I had collected 1250 frames. I then harvested the best 94 frames and came up with the attached result. It’s a bit thin and although there is evidence of granulation, the detail has been punished by the high frequency jitters.

Mewlon 180 F12 at prime focus with DMK31AF04.

Cheers

Dennis
