Bad Day

Today would be the worst conditions I have ever tried to image in.
Seeing was all over the shop with wind and rain coming and going. I really should know better. Dropped the scope and put a great dent in the tube. The DMK 51 attached to tha3x Bar (its dead) took a major tumble about 3 feet while trying to get stuff out of the rain. Not game to plug it in yet.
I got some data but decided to see if I could get some detail in the large filaments rather than the sun surface. It should be possible the same as the Proms. I think there is some there. I will try again in better conditions. Did manage 1000 Frames for a full disc in 5/10 seeing.
