About this image

Sorry for the slightly rakish angle. The OOUK focuser was playing silly buggers and refused to work when the focuser was upside down. Needs adjustment. Certainly meant I wasted 20mins of the first clear night in 2 weeks.

Anyway, its still there and its still changing, albeit it slowly and while a bit dim. The gradual increase in mag by PV Cep may also have stalled. I made it 16.6 unfiltered.
