I have been complaining recently about the La Nina related cloud coverage over the East coast of Australia in recent times and while I am still displeased, like many others.... I can hardly contain my excitement and want to balance this, moisture driven ill will, a bit
So, despite the cloud issues, we are all having to contend with, I have never the less managed to get an image underway and in fact have a completed version ready to go..but still hoping, even with the current lean pickings, to get just a bit more exposure...we will see?
I am delighted to be able to confirm a significant improvement in atmospheric seeing conditions, compared to my previous site, much closer to Canberra and at 850m less altitude, the extra altitude and more remote location, are making an amazing difference, I can hardly believe it
These improved conditions have been noted every session so far, both visually through the eyepiece on quite a number of occasions and in several imaging sessions to date, very cool
That's all, just needed to get it out...I feel better now
Stay tuned
Mike
