Well, I went out last night, but clouds came in after only getting 60 minutes of subs. So I decided to try to make something of them and did a simulated HA image with them.
Not the greatest, but I had to get something for the two hours of driving. 8)

Floyd,
Another nice image. Glad you got something for the effort.
Those clouds came out of nowhere. We were walking our dog last night and it was clear when we left and 10 minutes later it rolling in from somewhere shocked I don't think it was predicted, either on the clock or by the weather forecasts. I'm glad I got some time in on Friday..

Nice Floyd. Too bad about the cloud and the limited session.

Great shot Floyd, specially considering your "limited" conditions... 8)

I would say it was worth the effort!

Hi Floyd,

Not bad at all for an hours worth of data.
Hate it when the darn clouds come rolling in!
