Due to my location I have had a project of imaging the AAT infront of the setting sun. I get 2 attempts per year. No cigar for 3 years due to a variety of reasons. Tonight was close.
This image is of the Skymapper dome silhouetted against the sunset.
Image through the 4" f9 Unmoded 300D, white-light solar filter, Frame crop.
The AAT should be done tomorrow or next.

Bet I know when it will rain in Coona.

Not tonight.

Flat on the left side of the solar image is the AAT.
