About this image
Double stacked (60mm Lunt with 50mm second etalong on the front). 60 seconds at about 50fps captured in Firecapture. Best 50% frames stacked in AS!4, wavelets in Registax, levels and curves adjusted in FastStone Image Viewer. Seeing was poorer than OK, but not horrendous. High haze [as always] and intermittant large fair weather clouds hindering play. See forum thread on second etalons: https://britastro.org/forums/topic/second-etalon
