Bart, a lovely collection of images.I think you must be under-estimating your seeing as the lunar prime focus ones are very nice indeed. Best wishes, David...
Ed, a truly spectacular image! I think this is the best one you've ever done. It's quite an adrenaline rush when seeing really steadies up isn't it? The only...
Dear All, I am a little embarassed to show these after the truly outstanding images of late. These are the last from my 29/10/07 session. Seeing was not kind, ...

Great detail for the aperture. I do see some highlight blooming though. You might go through all the frames you used and see if you can eliminate the ones...
Hello David, ... Thanks for the compliment. I don't think I'm underestimating the seeing, rather I think that in Belgium good seeing is very, very rare (though...
I am back from a terrific once in a lifetime trip: I watched the launch of the STS-120 Shuttle mission from Kennedy Space Center and visited the area. I was...
Hi All 6 AVI montage from a couple of nights ago, in between the rain showers, seeing was pretty awful, so not bad considering. 8.2 f7.5 newtonian, 2.5x...
Thanks Tony. Unfortunately this excessive highlight is present in almost every frame I have captured. I believe I can improve something in regulation of the...
Hi Achille, Congratulations on this fine image. At your aperture it may be hard to get just the right exposure for the dimly lit regions at the terminator...
That image really shows well some of the concentric ridges that are a part of all of these major impact basins. Tony ... From: Geoffrey Mitchell To:...
Thanks Alan for your advice. I think that could work although I fear that this could bring artifacts in tonaLITY of final image. Ciao Achille Alan Friedman...

Hi Geoff, Very good image from difficult conditions if you also had a cold front with the showers that for sure will bring not so good seeing until the front...
That's wonderful Paolo, it's something I've always wanted to do. sounds like you were at the closest allowed position to watch a shuttle liftoff. I wonder if...
The only thing I can thin of to help this while shooting is to do two avi captures, one exposed as you did for the overall scene and one that's under exposed...
... The good news is that I have just done that: KSC Tour 2007 - Technical Crew Debriefing http://www.forumastronautico.it/index.php?topic=5022.0 The bad news...
Thank you for those details Paolo, it really brings the experience to life. Now take that experience and try and imagine what a Saturn 5 launch would have been...

Bart, that is very interesting. I had a review of my very best seeing avi and it is only slightly better than your moderate seeing snippet. ( But I was looking...
Hello David, ... I guess that means neither of us has had good seeing while imaging :-) Seriously, I've had a couple of "excellent seeing" events in my ...
I kept the lights on this time....... I agree, that area to the northwest deserves a closer look with a bigger aperture. What catches my eye the most is that...
lol...indeed. Things like that wouldn't happen if I didn't have such a wild and wooly, overloaded mount. It's a real struggle to maintain framing and if...
