The year of 2000 and now the beginning of 2001 shall go down in my history book as the worst string of bad planetary seeing I have seen here in Phoenix. I hope those days are over! This small image set should be called the Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. Of course , you won't see the ugly one! It is a good example though of how my seeing changes form one moment to the next. The first image was taken shortly after sunset ( half hour or so). The second, an hour or so. The third image was so bad none of the thirty images in that set were useable. My seeing lately, typically yields results in the second image range. Of course, I rarely send those out for public use. I did manage to capture my first useable ( I hope!) Mars images this AM. I have not processed them yet, so am keeping my fingers crossed. Calm skies Thanks Dave Moore
