Prom Re-Process
I posted this capture yesterday, but it wasn't all that good. The surface sucked swamp water. This morning I applied a flat frame to even out the surface. While it still isn't that great, I feel a little better about it.
Thanks for the re-peek.

Re: Prom Re-Process
We both are well aware that shooting at the focal lengths that the Quark delivers requires a pretty decent sky . On the other hand your Lunt will be more forgiving when the sky's are not . I have wondered why you never seem to use it anymore . I do remember seeing some great "Lunt Shots" from you in the past . You would be backed out more but wouldn't your Lunt be a better option for you when your sky is poor ?

Re: Prom Re-Process
Mike, you make a good point. I loaned my Lunt to a friend who just returned it. When I get my mount swapped out I'll likely start using it some. With decent proms popping up all around the limb now, I should be returning to those "Days of yore" soon.Solsearcher wrote: ↑Wed Dec 16, 2020 5:27 pm We both are well aware that shooting at the focal lengths that the Quark delivers requires a pretty decent sky .
