20110410 Sun

I managed to get back home early enough to catch some sunshine! No more aperture blocking since I've moved my Ranger to the hacked side of the iOptron Cube. The hacked side is not as stable as the official side but then it works far better in the summer.

Poor seeing at 2/10, transparency like 4/10. The sun is more active these days and it's always changing and a fun to capture.
