Hopped in the car yesterday for a trip to Wiruna to try out my Polarie with the new polar finder scope. Man, is Sigma Octantis hard to find. Any chance of funding a geostationary satellite at the SCP at around magnitude 2??:D
Here are a few sample shots, all are three minute exposures using a Tokina 11-16mm and Canon 24-105L lens
Wide field Magellenic clouds. Lots of green sky glow last night
