good to hear some people managing to get the gear out. wowee, Saturday night I pushed through the cold till 4.30am packing my bag away I noticed it was frozen. yep it was cold. crisp, and still transparency was good however the stars were still jumping around.

the forecast was good so I kept the scope out all setup, last night cold again and managed to nab a couple of targets after the cloud left then rolled back in again. transparency not as good and stars still jumping around will hopefully get a a few hours tonight after work fingers crossed its not too windy. if I only had an obsy!

the big bonus is that the DSLR is loving the cold no Peltier's required!
