Hi Guys
We have now relocated from inner west sydney to Ulladulla on the south coast of NSW - and what a difference 300 km makes to the night sky. Milky way is a whitewashed streak across the sky and the bays and dark nebula in Sagittarious are breathtaking. The Coal sack is three dimensional! And this is only through the binoculars :D. Can't wait to get the telescope unpacked.
Cheers
Chris

No no - not pix

Astrophotography - that way lies madness, and a depleted bank balance

You can't get out of it that way. Let me explain even photo's with the moon and stars in it are not astrophotography if they have the landscape:P included so you can take that one with out risk of madness we must see this dark sky you brag of as said earlier no photo and it doesn't exist and any claims to the contrary simply don't hold any water. We will hound you without mercy until you relent and show us the money so to speak. Just fair warning we must see it or else.:rofl::D
