Somewhat shamefully I've had some seriously nice kit sitting in my backyard
for a year or so, gathering dust most evenings.
The recent run of clear weather convinced me it was high time to clean and realign the optics, do a new T-Point mapping run and
expose the big'ish mirror to some ancient photons from...wait for it...
"Frog View" Observatory!
(due the significant number of frogs in our front yard pond...they were making so much noise that we recently had a visitor,
who we called Monty (a diamond Python). Seems Monty likes French cuisine, "Cuisses de grenouille" in particular.
The pond has been a bit quiet of late.
I had hoped for a complete colour sequence...but high cloud rolled in just as the 12th luminance frame downloaded.
To quote Kelly (Ned) and possibly a few frogs..."such is life...."
'nuff said.
Early result here
Colour to come weather permitting
