Hi Joe, yes Sigma Orionis and nearby Struve 761 is one of my favourite fields of view.
I am in Vic also to visit a grandchild. We have spent the first week in Melb with clear skies and I cannot believe how bad the light pollution is after our very dark skies at home south of Hobart. We are travelling west now with time in Mt Gambier and then the Grampians. So hopefully some clear dark skies then.
Where will you be?
