Light pollution fix

So I haven’t been getting any imaging done for months now. My setup is right outside my kitchen window and I had these really crappy vertical blinds that let a lot of light through stuffing up most of my photos (wife and gets got fed up walking around the house and cooking with no lights on).

Also just renovated the house which left me with no blinds at all for months.

Reno’s are now finished and I had these 100% blockout blinds installed. They’ve got these side and bottom rails to completely seal the light out. So with any luck there’ll be clear skies this Friday and I’ll be back into it without the light pollution issues I’ve been having.

Would definitely recommend getting rails around your blinds if your imaging close to your house.
