Oh, and where I set the scope up is on council property...I can move it around 5' or so back, along the White fence on the left, and then it's on my property, but then I'm sacrificing views to the East/ESE/SE, as well as even more of the West/NW/NWN views...
very frustrating.
out of the 3 places that we've lived, this is by far the worst from the Astronomy aspect. Light pollution in Ipswich is horrid - far worse than what it was like in Western Sydney.
The place that my parents had in Toowoomba would have been awesome (well, it was actually @ Wyreema) - heaps of room, even for a permanent observatory setup, good views all around, flat, and I could see to the horizon in all cardinal points...sadly, my parents sold that property to move where they are now...
