Stanislas Maksymowicz (150mm refracter)
My first contribution to Uranus survey for this present opposition.
I used as a preliminary the 150mm refractor F8 with 375 and 325x.
Features were faint and sky transparency average to good short times.
Seeing was average to good and then poor at the period issue.
Banding is appearing faint, cap area brighter than the tropical-temperate
zone bordering.
EZ appears very faintly sometimes.
A brightening seems to be at sunrise side on EZ
Brightening and EZ needs a bigger aperture to confirm their presence,
except these two, the other parts of the planet are obvious.
