Title: Last Night
Post by: Fay on Mar 19, 2011, 11:02:59
Well, Moon was far too bright & in the worst place it could have been, so just went from place to place. Looked at a few galaxies, had the 2" cls filter in, but very heavy vignetting, with the QSI/120/ flattener, when using the L filter. Ok using the Ha.  All galaxies were dead centre, so was pleased about that

See allways get a full moon when the skies are perfect, we went out and let off some of the hot air baloons Tony like so much...

Not a lot of point in doing anything else.
