I tried to do some imaging on Monday night and last night after nearly a month of cloud and rain and the damn moon was washing out all my images
The biggest problem I have is the limited view from my backyard, no view from southeast to west below 65deg and a big 12metre pine tree in my east view
Hence I couldn’t get out of the moon’s line of glare. So I gave up and practiced some EQMOD goto functions using sync points and some visual obs on the moon
I envy you guys who have clear 360deg views from horizon to zenith, you can image so many objects at all times of the night and early morning
Friday nights looking better as the moon is rising later

Here’s my set up in Sydney
Cheers and clear skies
