This is my 3rd try to capture this supernova.
1st attempt nothing would behave -mount had lost its pointing model so I could not find the galaxy to start with, webcam settings all wrong
so guiding was hit & miss, just after full moon, then the object disappeared behind the roof
2nd attempt very windy, when the clouds played ball all the stars were treble stars, roof and moon of course
3rd try again very windy with patchy clouds but managed to get arround a 200sec exposure that was not buffeted too much between the clouds
