Another difficult double. Similar to α Piscium, this one took me a good bit of time. Looking back, I probably should have waited another hour or two, since it was so low on the horizon and the image of the star seemed to 'jump' around a bit. Stop down helped with this one, and lots of time with micro-focusing, but I was finally able to spot the sibling. I was able to see a little more of the sibling than the 'arc' that I saw with α Piscium, though this one would appear and disappear from sight.

Nice split. Found by following the crook of the head of Aries to μ Piscium, then moving to η Piscium, then ζ Piscium. Primary appears white the secondary may have a hint of orange or yellow in it.

A little difficult to see. I was able to detect it in my finder-scope. AV helps show a "busy noise" in an almost triangular shape. Can't tell if it has a bright center, or if that is a nearby star.

Found near δ Ceti. AV is not required for detection, but helps bring out the elongated share. Also brings out a slightly brighter center.
