Fabulous Paul!
Comes across very impressively and I am sure there will be viewers out there
who will come away thinking, "I want to do that!".
Having recently had some visitors out from the UK, I also strongly suspect that
there were will many UK viewers somewhat envious of the fact you get such
clear skies and that "this bloke in Australia has a piece of property large
enough where he can set up his own observatory!". So it is funny how we in Australia
take this sense of space somewhat for granted, but for some who live in other parts of
the world your observatory is probably as large as their entire garden!
Sounds like it was one of those rare magic nights of seeing for the award winning Saturn shoot.
Funny how different observers often describe the colours they perceive of objects
in different ways. When you were asked about Saturn, you respond about
what you describe as its "yellowy-orangey colour" whereas I tend to start
by describing to people the mauve-purple cap first.
In recent weeks, just by accident whilst Googling, I came across your observatory
construction blog which is an impressive thing in itself!
Once again, great video!
