Hi all,

Went over to Zane Hammond's observatory over at Lake Bathurst with Louie last night and bagged it.

that's it, I think i'm going to pack up and go home to sulk!!!!:sadeyes: :sadeyes: :sadeyes:

Bloody Marvooolussssss :D :D :D

that has to be the BEST southern hemisphere shot I have seen todate.

In fact I have to say, nothing from the Northern boys either can come near that master piece.

ps, you not going to do a few A3 print and selling them off to fellow forumnites for a good price???;) ;) ;)
