Prom on NW Limb 12/15/2020
Seeing was awful today, but I wanted to catch this prom. Not much on the surface, but I hate painting 'em black.
Thanks for the peek.

Your right John the atmosphere must have messed with the crispness we've become accustomed to seeing from you.

No... That was with the Evostar 80ED. The wind was around 15mph and seeing was really bad... A combo that doesn't suit the 100ED very well.Solsearcher wrote: ↑Wed Dec 16, 2020 3:01 am Nice to see that somebody is imaging , was that done with the Evostar you reviewed ?
