Observing Log for Mike Durkin


9/15/2012 about 8:00PM-4:00AM
Locust Valley, NY
Transparency: 4-8/10, Seeing 3/5
Temperature: about 50-65 degrees
Equipment: Celestron Ultima 8 and Hutech modified Canon Rebel XT

So I started the evening hoping to do DSLR photometry of GP Peg, and eclipsing binary. By the time I got my autoguider set up and focusing, the clouds got even thicker and I missed the beginning of the eclipse. After that I broke down my SCT.
By the time I finished with my SCT, thge skies started to clear up, so I did do some DSLR photometry on R Lyr, XY Lyr, P Cyg, Mira, and X Per.
