Today's Proms -1st April

Couldn't figure out what was happening... had some sun but still lumping seeing conditions. Used the SM60 with the AE x4 ( f25) and DMK21.
On the second series, things just didn't look right ( do they ever??); found that the barlow lens inside the AE Imagemate has started to unscrew itself and was flopping around..... just another thing to check in future!!
The AR is with the single stack, around 0.7A; ran out of time to change over!

Another nice set of images Merlin. I like 5 and 6 the best, 5 has some really nice detail and 6 is nice in its simplicity - if that makes sense.

Thanks for sharing them with us.

Very nice, Ken. You've obviously got clearer skies than me at present!

Thanks for the kind comments!
Although we're getting some sunshine, its weak and watery!! and the seeing conditions are very average. The image bounces all over the place!
Still trying to get the hang of Registax5.....
I'm hopeful when the barlow is tightened (!!) I'll get better results....
