Thanks Lewis and hey, just gotta grab what ya can. I got two clear nights in a row out at Wallaroo for this one

..unfortunately it was cloudy during the day between nights and my batteries didn't get much charge, so I was cut a little short on the second night when my batteries got a bit too low and to avoid shortening their life I cut the session a little short, could have perhaps grabbed 1 or 2 more hrs of Lum had that not occurred
