Location: Quercy Dark Sky Reserve, France
Session duration: 2 nights
Sky conditions: Moderate turbulence, seeing ~6/10
Instruments:
- 80mm refractor
- 100mm apochromatic refractor
- 150mm Newtonian telescope
Targets:
- Venus
- Jupiter
- Betelgeuse

Observation notes:
Transparency improved after midnight and allowed longer visual work on faint deep-sky targets.
The larger telescope resolved dense clusters cleanly, while the refractor was used for wider fields and comparison views.
