About this image

After a first effort two days earlier in capturing features on Mercury I had a prolonged attempt in daylight once the Sun was out of direct line of sight from my observatory. Details were clearer than my first attempt and with careful selection and processing I was able to merge together four separate stacks of the best 4% of my four best videos.
