We've a couple of members up that way.
They should be able to point you in the right direction.

Frank, you'll be able to take piccies no problems in Mackay. Plus, you'll be able to takes piccies of all that you do now, and then some...like M31 and M33, with no hassles at all. M51 will be within reach as well. Lots of objects you'd find hard to get now because they're too low will be a lot easier to see from up here.

I lived there for a while.! you should be able to do a fair bit of good work... mackay is only a small town so get out of town less than ahour and you should be good to do some good work.!
