It is Pretty Obvious Now

Hi Guys

I did always suspect this, but now it is official.

Of late my images have been Ok, but the sky fogging and noise, because of longer exposures because i am now auto guiding is taking it's toll on the results.

I have imaged of late to the East, and directly over head, and also toward the West, and upon studying the results have shown that imaging toward the East is just a waste of good time, and from now will just wait until the object is either directly above, or better still, slightly toward the West.

I realise that this is only related to my location, as toward the East i tend to image across the glow of Ballarat, which is pretty bright.

So I have concluded that unless the object is directly above or more West ward i will not be imaging that perticular object until such time it has crossed the sky to a more suitable location.

Upon re reading this i have noticed that i have repeated myself a number of times, Ah well, you get the idea.

I thought i might just share that with you, maybe i should move to Snake Valley
