Managed to have a go last night, might be the last for a while as from the 7th October the Dept of fires(DSE) will be burning off just down the road...
Earlier this year in feb we had the skycranes bombing the fires as they were out of control, sat on the deck set up the small scope to watch....good fun til the local boys in blue said if the wind changed we were toast. fortunately the observatory is still intact
there goes the view
