It’s been clear the last 3 nights. Sunday I was out until around 1am but having to get up at 6am for work brought an early end to the session. Monday evening, after Karate, I was too tired to stay up and had an early night, but tonight I think I’ll have another couple of hours imaging.

 I’ve spent an hour or so knocking together a mount for my “guidescope”.  To the untrained eye it looks to be made from a piece of drainpipe, but a closer look reveals its actually a fan duct! I don’t have time to fit it this evening but hopefully this will allow me to take a step into autoguiding. If not I’ll have to take the plunge and buy some proper mounts.

The sun is setting in the sky …. I’m off to set the scope up.
