Went out to the country with my portable setup this weekend. Had a few problems with trackingand all the rest so didn't end up with any great photo's. Came back late in the day after solar viewing and that night spent 30 mins starting up the observatory to take images all night before leaving it to go to bed.
It was then I was reminded just how useful an observatory is and how extremely lucky I am to have one. 30mins of setup I get more results than an all-nighter with the portable setup.
Roger.
