About this image

Oh how tantalising. The planet just clears some local obstructions then theres a rush before it gets too low. There was quite a lot of diffraction going on so had to split and align RGB to get a decent image.

No detail sadly. Next time will make sure i have some NB fliters to hand. So this is an unfiltered image.

Visually though, there was cloud detail evident.
