If it's not one thing it's another...seeing has picked up remarkably...& now the clouds are here! I got 2 AV's at my antares magnification though...we'll see how they turn out..

Nice 2nd picture BTW.

Nice ones Lester!

I've got some Jups from last night too which I'll post. Only through a C8 though!

Al.

Great work Lester.

Hi Asi,

I know how you feel, perhaps tonight. Didn't get to use my extention tube last night because of the cloud comming in quicker than I had planned.

What is BTW?

'By the way'

Hi David,Thanks.

Captured for 90 seconds.

Thanks for your comments Al and Andrew.

Look forward to seeing yours Al, a C8 isn't much smaller than a C9.25 and they can produce great images, so good luck.
