Clear evening again last night in the West, but still seeing fell short. 3Hrs glued to the laptop screen waiting for a purple patch, fired off a number of runs with the attached pic the end result of the best AVI. For good measure took some pics of the Milky way with a Nikkor 80-200mm F2.8 :Chessy_Smile:

Very nice Jupiter shot Stu. As Mick says, the colours are great. A lovely wide field image too.

Great Pics Stu. Must have missed this thread when it got posted though.

What do you mean by staring at a purple patch? :hmm:

Cheers

Thanks very much fellas......Ray the seeing is usally variable over a time spent trying imaging, Ill just monitor the screen until the preview image looks good and start an AVI...but like fishing i guess :eartoear:

Not like fishing for me, Stu. If I haven't caught anything in the first 10 minutes, I start fidgeting and wondering what else I could be doing!
