Hi Milton,

sorry for the delay but i realized only now that you answered.

Your question about the IR filter was related to the animation?

In this case YES it is with the Baader IR pass.

The color image i posted contemporarily is composed by one of the animation frames (as luminance) that i completed with an additional RGB set. (baader RGB of new generation).

So the colored image was IR-RGB


Yes, it seems that the collimation resisted pretty well and that OTA seem well done.


Ice, Snow, cold, etc. not only in Europe but in US, Canada (it's normal i guess)  and  Asia too.

It would be very better to live on Mars taking pictues of the Earth: better seeing and nicer planet to image.

Very Nice Alberto.


Was that with an IR filter?


It looks like you have the collimation dialed in really well.


Thanks for sharing..


PS: We had ice fog starting thursday evening and it's been snowing here since Saturday morning, and hasn't stopped. Could be worse though, my folks have 0.8 meters of snow on the ground so far in Saskatchewan since Friday, and it's still coming down.


TTYL..

Hi Alan,

very nice image as usual from you!

Those clouds are very delicate and not easy to capture i guess.

Thx for sharing.


Saurday night after months of rain, snow, fog and clouds we had a break of 6 hours of nice seeing.

i was eager to test the new C11.

I'm processing a little animation and i'll post it soon.



Today still fog and snow!
