Hello,


I took this last night just as a fog layer was forming on a very warm Florida evening. Even my hair was collecting dew after only 30 minutes outside. I finally gave up after only a few videos and came back inside in the air conditioning.

Infinity 2-1M Camera, Meade 12 SCT, Astronomik RGB Filters, Lumicon filter selector, Optec TCF-S focuser, Televue 3x barlow. Each AVI was 60 seconds, and I stacked the best 1,000 frames of each color.

Hello,


Thank you everyone for the nice comments. I'm going to try out the Infinity tonight again. Lows should be in the 50's, very low humidity (no dew!!!), and Clear Sky Clock is predicting very good seeing.
