Sodium tail of Mercury

Not a good sky at all but good enough to do a test to catch the sodium tail of Mercury.

Set up:
- AZEQ6 Mount
- Sigma 18-35 f/1.8 lens
- Sodium Filter
- ASI2600MC
Software : SharpCap 4
Stacking : AstroSurface and editing CS4

So, weather was not good with poor transparency resulting in no tail at all. Next time focal point will be increased aswell.
