About this image

At the eyepiece the SN appeared similar brightness to the previous observation. But it very hard to tell.
I again registered the image and using aperture photometry facilities of Astroart9.
From the data i have the instrumental magnitude has brightened ever so slightly to mag12.7 This is a cropped extract from the previous image.

I am not sure the measurements I take match those others may have taken. I aim to produce a light curve eventually. The most important thing is to keep to same routine and use same instruments throughout.. consistency. Watch this space.

Of course, this hasnt just happened. It actually occurred some 45million years ago... and 10days.
