Well, a month ago I posted a thread about the bloody wind here in Wallaroo huh? :P ...soooo just to be fair I thought I better balance that now...tonight there is not a breath of wind, there is no moon, very little dew and the seeing is good :cool:...an all nighter on some galaxies is well under way :D

Finished the night with the Milky Way spanning directly overhead, almost North-South, then the beautiful Zodiacal light in the Eastern sky capped it off....Seems too often you lose but sometimes..you do win :thumbsup:

To quote a line from the Life of Brian - "You lucky, lucky bastar...."!!:lol:

A pretty rare occurrence these days so here's something to get you through the long nights ahead.... "Miserere" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYBHNLdwzbs) :bowdown:

Glad to see your getting some good weather Mike.

Autumn is always a great time in the Canberra and surrounding regions.

I've been getting some great nights lately.

Cheers men and Ricki, yes finally the windy weather has taken a hike! These current conditions are far removed from what I had to deal with from inner suburban Newcastle :clap:...you out tonight?

Liquid sunshine here Mike - day and night. I reckon in the past 3 months it has rained on at least 60 days!?

Friday night was a beauty, I was out doing visual.

Today is looking a bit dodgy, I have to wait and see how it pans out.

Cheers
