The Cambroon night was a great success
a bit short on numbers but the quality was fantastic
Randall was quietly doing his time laps imaging RobF was also imaging and instructing Randall and Suzy in the Art of extracting the dim photons from the Dark Sky
Shawn and Mike where quietly observing away in the dark and enjoyed the night
Russell, Suzy's hubbie and I where checking out my 8" scope and doing some observing with the 16" while the women chatted away like Budgies in the dark
It was a joy to behold Suzy's excitement when Jeanette,Terry,Shelly,and Tony turned up
she was charging around hugging everyone in turn
then chatting away at a thousand miles an hour,and she reckons I can talk
The 16" really got a workout when the "Gate Crashers" turned up
the ooose and arrrs ringing out into the night was amazing as prime views of 47Tuc and Ngc 253 where observed
The Andromeda galaxy really put on a show
Russ, had always wanted to see The Andromeda galaxy and it did not disappoint
Even though low down M 42 put on a good show and was enjoyed by all
I had hoped to be able to show them the the Supernova in Leo but the clouds and the late hour denied me the privilege
When everyone had gone silence was amazing after such an exciting few hours
To meet all these people who I have wanted to meet for such a long time was a dream come true
I hope we can do it again
cheers
PS Suzy, I will try not to squeeze so hard next time
