It's been stinking hot most clear nights in Sydney but I managed to get my butt out yesterday as the evening was nice and cooler to setup. Out of practice and not everything worked as it was supposed to. My Sharpsky Pro focuser didn't connect to the USB lappie for some obscure reason and I lost a couple of hours trying to figure it out then focused manually, until I started imaging around 10:00pm. Clouds rolled in at 3:30am but I had it all done by them . Very dewy night but cool and no breeze. Also got the ada[ter spacing wrong for the camera (again)
. Pics are cropped and 'pretty' but I won't be made accountable for any retina scaring so don't look too hard.

Thanks for looking and keep cool.
