9mm Ortho : This pair was
easily split into a white primary with a pale
orange coloured companion. A nice fov with a few other stars in view
too. A
visual estimate of PA ( 145 degrees ) was made. Ambience. A quiet, cold night, broken only by the odd hoot from an owl in a nearby tree. Snowdrops nearby bow their heads with cold. Me too after a few hours at the eyepiece of my telescope. |
