Can I ask what where the stats on the individual frames?

Thanks Jay-qu. I used a Canon 5DmkII + 14 mm f/2.8L lens with 30 sec exposures, f/2.8, ISO 3200 (facing west) and ISO 6400 (facing east), triggered by a remote shutter release.

Thanks Stu. The site is frequented by Southern Astronomical Society members (including the President and Vice-President last weekend), so perhaps it's best to get in touch with them and have a chat?

Thanks Rick A shame that I wasn't organised enough to have the time lapse working on the second night to get both our RCs into the one FOV!

Thanks for all the hard work putting it together!!

Thanks Rob, it was great weekend! A shame that I couldn't join you earlier, and that you couldn't stay longer. Oddly enough, I don't think it would have been as interesting without the alignment bit at the start... which ironically was only needed because I whacked my head on the mount trying to plug in the dew heater for the time lapse camera, thereby knocking out the PA by 1 degree!
