About this image

My clearest images of Mercury this year following some helpful advice from Chris Hooker. The Powermate and ASI174MM combination gave the sharpest images but the ASI482MC wasn't far behind. An interesting comparison of cameras! WinJUPOS graphic included to compare darker features A and B in particular.
