Yes it was a great night, good to meet everyone and have a look through Hector..the view of M83 in particular through the big scope was fantastic, thnaks to John and Andrew.
Good to meet Cahullian and Ron with broken arm, (even though they failed to deliver the promised busload of girls)
As is now usual my battery pack died before I could accomplish anything useful but Louie being the champ he is came to the rescue.
I powered my laptop and webcam using his battery pack and Louie and I took the attached image of Omega Centauri through Louie's Tak. Anthony helped us focus on Jupiter before we turned to other objects.
I have to say I liked what I was seeing on the lap top screen so much that I had to go and get Wayne and Anthony to come and have a look. John had a look too.
Louie and I also imaged M104, 4595 and tried Tempel1. The M104 is attached but the other two didnt turn out all well unfortunately..think we missed the comet altogether and the galaxy requires more exposure,
Unfortunately my internet at home fell over so I couldnt post these yesterday
