Details:
With added confidence from yesterday's core images (Thanks Dr Clay) I decided to switch out cameras on the RASA 11 (presently using an asi6200mmP 3.9"/px for sky survey work) for the 2.9"/px ASI 183mmP in hopes of catching more detail in C/2017 K2's core. Seeing was slightly worse and the camera has a smaller field of view but I had to try. Here are the preliminary results of this past night's imaging seeing.
