Have you tried to get access to the U Tas radio telescope site in the coal valley? I tried a couple of years ago but didn't get any clear nights... Would be a good place for nightscapes I think!
Yeah it all happened very quickly and yeah I was just lucky to have the opportunity to get some final snaps of it! I have tried a couple of times to get shots down at that telescope but it's all private property and they don't like you roaming around there for OH&S reasons. I was told this by someone that works there and I haven't been back since! It would be good to organize an "authorized" visit in future and try and get some good night snaps of it!
Cheers,
Stephen
