Talking To Hell with being responsible. I'm out there!!!!

Bugger the 3 Uni assesments I have due in the next 2 weeks , WE'VE GOT A CLEAR NIGHT!!!!!!

It's calm, it's cool and I put the SCT out as soon as I got home And there are no tennis court or bowls clubs lights on. WooHoo I can't remember the last time I was out with my cameras for pure pleasure. Seems like forever. Hey the Jet Stream is up the Khaiber but who cares.

I'm in for a long one tonight . After the effort I put in at work today I think they can wait on me tomorrow

Paul you have to go inside now!!
Finish all the assignments and then, only then you can go out and play.
Nah any night with clear skyes is a good reason not to do assignments.
Have a good night tonight (i know i won't, cloudy from here to the end of the world ).

lets see, one eye on the autoguider, one on the tv watching NSW beat the morons a few DSO's between planets......

Paul I am in awe- it is cold and clear here, but have to go shortly and get daughter. things against me is dogtrack operating fully floodlit, next door has every light on as well as up the back with their 2000 watt floodlight. nothing at my place tonight. I bet that Scott Alder is warm inside watching the NSW guys beating the morons

now all I can see is Ponders dancing around having caught Saturn, heaps of DSO's and now he is onto Jupiter, and rejoicing because the cane toads won....

oh well, show us the images Paul

Go for it Paul, sometimes it just has to be done. You can always look upon it as stress relief.

Cheers

Clear skies, great viewing, Maroon's win - what can I say?
Things are great here in Queensland tonight.


Hope the imaging has gone fantastic Paul!
If Jupiter looked anything like the amazingly detailed views we had Saturday night it should be awesome.

I don't know where you got your clear skies from Steve, but the moment I started to polar align the cloud moved in and it's still here. Not happy Jan.
