Relocation

Hi All,

After about 5.5 years in Europe I have relocated back downunder. These are the first survey shots from my new backyard with my Pentax K-1mkII and 24-70 lens.

Not as dreamworthy as Mike's Eagleview Farm, but pretty dark for a place that's still a daily commute to Richmond for work.

Next thing is to get approval from the Resident's Association for the observatory build.

Even snagged a photo of Comet Leonard setting over my neighbors house.

Cheers
Stu

Hi Stu


Thanks for posting these shots, it explains why I have had so much trouble finding Leonard with the binoculars. At least I finally got a photo of it tonight.

There are quite strict building restrictions here, I'll have to submit plans for approval, once they are satisfied that the observatory will not be an eyesore then they approve.

It's just a small price to pay for living here.

Cheers
