I like it.  Very crisp.  That must have been taken Friday night when we had the excellent seeing?  That's exactly what we saw through the eyepiece of the C11 at 350x magnification!

as punch,.

Just sitting here deciding whether to do some more processing, pack, or do my degree.

Sorted, Cup of tea and then some more processing.

the only thing that annoyed me is the fact that i've not been able to use my Barlo due to problems, ect.
and the day i wanted it , its on loan. :roll: oh well.

p.s. Carol you might as well keep it for the time being, all my scope stuff is now packed untill after the move.  :lol:
