Description

This is a work in progress. Just two frames for each filter before the clouds rolled in. Weather forecasts indicates it might be a while before there's another chance to grab more data, so I decided to make the best of what I had so far. Will revisit this one after I get more data. Need more data for better satellite trail rejection.
