Yes that may well be and seeing here is not just momentary Pete. There are long minutes of high seeing values. There is little if any wobble during that time. Your statement actually shows how much DSO imagers think they know about seeing. At long focal lengths (ie 12m) the seeing must be sustained for long periods to get great images. We cannot make great images from fleeting moments. No offence intended Pete.
We get laminair flow here because the high pressures push straight up from the southern ocean. There are no terrain features to cause eddies, only the jet stream can cause an issue. It gets that still here that you can here the ocean 6kms away crashing into the beach on many nights. It is unique and plenty of people who have been here can attest to the quality of the seeing here. Also your comment clearly suggests that great seeing cannot be obtained at sea level. Exmouth and high up the West Coast of Australia produces this same sort of seeing and is probably at higher values. I have seen the videos and it looks just like looking out of a space ship at video of Jupiter. Flinders rangers has been professionally tested too and is not high peaks and produces incredible seeing. Ask Wysiwig why he put his dome there. The only reason why all the pro observatories on the east coast were not put in the Flinders was because of its remote location at the time.
Guide stars don't bounce here, don't discount this being real. Suggesting it is not credible is suggesting I am lying.
