Makes me want to give it all up and take up a hobby where I can actually use my equipment. I knew this hobby was weather dependent but I'm barely able to take it out and use it.

Rene,
I hear your frustration and it use to get me down a bit too but try to look at it this way. If nights were clear each week , after 5 years or so you would get bored with the hobby. The weather , atmospheric conditions , your equipment and so on all have their challenges, everything we do in life has its challenges
Stick at it , the weather will change , it’s not cloudy every night for weeks and months ( like the UK ). As I mentioned before January and June are Sydney’s wettest months , the weather will improve through July , August and September It’s an incredible hobby and the level of technology in cameras , software and equipment is improving all the time which is super exciting
I’ll be imaging on Thursday night in Sydney as it’s going to be clear , light winds and low humidity so little or no dew and seeing should be ok , fingers crossed
Hang in there mate !!
Cheers
Martin
