TSS Photo of the Day

Post by Altocumulus »


Still getting my eye in. Not helped by poor seeing and too much cloud interfering!

Somehow I've misplaced my aperture mask, moving between obsys. So CaK on the Williams Optic is native at f6.9, so it looks 'soft'.

CaK - William Optics 102 f6.9, Lunt CaK 1200bf, Altair GPCam 178mm. Mosaic - might be the 'wrong way round.

Ha - Starwave 102 f11, Daystar Quark, Player One Apollo M Max.

Just call me Geoff....

I do what I do because I can, and because I want to.
It doesn't mean I know what I'm doing :mrgreen:
