Hi all

I am not going to get to any dark skies for Lovejoy (plus I have no easy tracking ability).
I was wondering if you could get an image from Mt Coot-tha (Brisbane) with the city in the pic?

Thanks.

You could try but with all that light in the piccie I doubt you'd see it.

Just take a few 30 sec subs and stack those....you don't really need to track it:)

I went up there this morning. Could make out the tail naked eye, but not the head. Downloading images now. Much light pollution. If it's fine overnight, I'm going to go somewhere else coastal.
