Gone - Astro Rig Stolen :mad2:

After one year of getting into AP....

Learning Astronomy, learning photography, and learning processing & photoshop...

Most of my gear (similar to the pictured configuration) was stolen last Sunday 8th May in Subiaco - Perth.

Stupidly, I left much of the equipment unattended for half an hour, and on my return.....it was all gone without a trace..

Unfortunately none of this stuff was covered by insurance, so....I'm kind of out of action for some time I suppose.

The stolen gear included;
- SkyWatcher HEQ5 Pro mount, a rather unique one with:
- Red Prima Luce Labs saddle
- Rowan Belt mod
- William Optics RedCat telescope
- ZWO 294 camera
- Battery etc...

Truly a sh*tty situation - I've tried reaching out to the nearby businesses where I live and I have some CCTV footage of the likely person who took this kit.

Moral of the story is....please AirTag all of your devices, or at least keep them secure, not like me.
