A Thanksgiving observation session! I stuffed myself stupid; so much so that I was feeling too tired to go out viewing tonight. I'm glad I pushed myself because it was beautiful tonight!

Found by RAing from ν Eridani. Clean split. The sibling is less bright but not hard to see. Both appear yellow in color.

10:30pm

Image

Found by Dec'ing down from μ Eridani. Cool faint pair. Looks like a ghostly pair of eyes. Orange-ish in color.

10:39pm

Image

Easy split. Primary is white, the sibling looks purple.

10:51pm

Image

Very faint and difficult to see. AV is required. Can see some "noise" in the area with an occasional glint of light. Maybe it's too low on the horizon? I may flag this one for a redo in the future.

11:07pm

Image

Rigel is so bright it almost washes out the sibling. Tried various methods, but stop-down without barlow worked the best.

11:14pm

Image

Easy split. The sibling is less bright, but still easy to see. Primary looks yellow.

11:20pm

Image

Took a little effort to get the split, mostly with micro-focusing. Both appear white.

11:35pm

Can only see two of the three siblings. I've tried everything I could think of to see the third, but it's keeps evading me.
