Weekend at Mt. Bowen - Crago Observatory

I had a ball this weekend looking at the stars and taking happy snaps at the Astronomical Society of NSW Crago Observatory at Mt. Bowen. Finally I had some clear skies. Anyone who believes this place suffers light pollution and chooses to go elsewhere good! more space and telescope time for me!

here are my happy snaps.

1. My C11 XLT on HEQ5
2. I made a new friend
3. Self Portrait inside the Dome
4. Moon and Jupiter
5. Outside in the early morning just as Jupiter and the Moon made their appearance right between Pleiades and Orion.
