Clear in Vic tonight

Looks like a great night for catching a few photons in Victoria tonight.

What are people targeting?

Looking good for tonight and maybe a couple of hours tomorrow night. I'll be trying out imaging through my TV85 to see how it compares to the NP101, just for curiosity.

First target will be something bright and that I've already done like M8, so I can compare to other images. I'm expecting the colours to be less vibrant in the doublet based on previous experience with a fluorite doublet, but I don't know until I try.

The TV85 is a magic grab and go visual scope.

Imme,
Aim for the skull or tarantula.
Might make the trip over to see how things are rolling. Few brews perhaps or a red?
Looking forward to checking out the shed....

You're welcome to drop over mate. It'll probably be red then port for me!

Oh, yeah, imaging......tarantula sounds a possibility.

See you tonight
