Observing Log for Mike Durkin
10/25/2026 about 7:30PM-9:30PM
Locust Valley, NY
Transparency: 9/10, Seeing 3/5
Temperature: 50-60 degrees
Equipment: Hutech modified Canon T3i
DSLR photometry of P Cyg, CH Cyg, and AG Peg.
CH Cyg looked pretty red in the display screen, so I think there is a good chance I'll have
to reject it. It has been a long time since I took a measurement of AG Peg, so I'm not sure
how well that will go either.
10/3-4/2026 about 8:30PM-3:00AM
Locust Valley, NY
Transparency: 9/10, Seeing 3/5
Temperature: 50-65 degrees
Equipment: Hutech modified Canon T3i and Seestar S50
DSLR photometry of P Cyg and CH Cyg. One problem though is that for CH Cyg,
the focal length ring must have slipped a little, just enough for the
brightest chech star to saturate some pixels.
Then I used the Seestar S50 to image the galaxy M74 for 122 minutes.
