Looks like the clouds over Hamilton are blowing away and skies should be clear by dark. A couple of us are heading to the Binbrook alternate site for some observing tonight. Probably be there around 9:30pm – it’s on Tyneside Rd – if coming from Hwy 6 – turn onto White Church (heading east) – it’s about 3 roads down – turn right (it’s the only way to go anyway) and go about 2.5km – we’ll be in a little parking lot on the left – if coming from Hwy 56 turn on to White Church or actually I think it’s called Binbrook road from this side (heading west) – turn left on Tyneside (again – it’s the only way to go) – same directions from here.
Update: The skies cleared – although there was a very slight shimmer when viewing Jupiter the visibility was otherwise good. Only 3 of us showed – so it was a quiet night except for the occasional passing car. I did some visual observing of Jupiter before turning my attention to imaging – capturing only 2 sets – starting with a few shots of the Ring Nebula in Lyra and then turned to M8 – the Lagoon Nebula. It is late and I have to work tomorrow – I will post the stacked and processed images to my gallery tomorrow evening.
