About this image

A tricky night to start with and I abandoned over two hours worth of data. It then briefly clouded over and I had almost given up when the sky cleared again and to my surpirse the seeing improved as well. This was my second set of succesful data and after struggling to get any decent OSC data I switched to RGB and that worked. I also abandoned my eADC for this set as an experiment although I used it for my earlier set that I will post shortly.
