Some Sunnage from Sunday

I think I captured some pretty similar images to Matt's today. Definitely looking at the same areas... I felt a bit of de ja vous looking at Matts!

To you too Al!

Great collection - you got some really good detail in the new AR - it is hard to achieve when there is significant foreshortening at the limb.

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Dave. That is correct. The guys at Bintel checked all that out before they'd sell it to me (the BF1200).

I like the large FOV of the DMK 41!

No reducer, Ken. Its a mosaic of 2 prime focus images with the ED80 and DMK 41. I stuffed up the higher magnification images by not mentioning I used a 2.5x Powermate.

Thanks Ken.

One day I'd like to replace the SM40 with a Lunt 75mm Ha filter!
