Thank you Robert and Andrew, for that information. I'll work on 11 degrees East and see how I go. As you say Andrew, it is an entire new subject to cover the Astrophotography, I guess I've got part 1 out of the way. That subject has been researched over and over again (it was my main objective in buying a scope etc), and the more I read, the less I am getting how to go about the finer details on photography. There seems to be so many conflicting ideas out there, it makes me wonder how some people end up with the images they do get. I've purchased the obligatory books on Astrophotography (still waiting on arrival), I've stopped Googling the subject, just to save my sanity. I have seen some wonderful images on this forum, so there are people out there that are in the know. Is there a link that someone could direct me to, I've searched this forum in a couple of places, but still haven't found what I am looking for. I know this is a steep learning curve, but I'm enjoying it so far. I figure if I can set up my scope correctly, then all I have to worry about is the settings on my camera and processing the data captured - and that too is a seperate subject as well LOL
Thanks for the help and information so far, and Robert - I think the diggers did a fantastic job in Vietnam - something every Aussie should be proud of. (no, this IS NOT an invite on a political view point, so don't even bother with that)
Regards, Dutch
