Hi all,

I missed the first day of last clear skies here in Seattle, but I managed to get this image on the 2nd day (last day of clearing). Good seeing condition, and about average transparency.

5.1" refractor (Tak TOA-130) @ apprx f/38.5
Powermate 5x & Toucam Pro.
700 frms / 900 frms (10 fps) - 90secs
Gain 40%, shutter 1/25, white balance "auto", saturation 100%, gamma 10%, brightness 45%.

Oh btw, I decided to setup on the backyard again. I was imaging from the deck, and now I found a spot where I won't destroy the lawn. It feels really good to image without having to breath really slow during recording :-).

Clear skies everyone,

Jeff
