About this image

The recent high pressure system over the UK gave an opportunity to image Mercury again....maybe the last for a while as it now is quite near the Sun.

Once again, heat issues around the scope were a problem.

Very 'fluttery' conditions, but one or two very short moments of reasonable seeing.
