Fantastic shots jjj!! Great to see them, see some of the guys, and all that hugely expensive equipment.
The giant Dobs look like alien lifeforms.
Good to see some blue sky and sunshine, though hear that the weather wasnt great all the time.

Thanks for posting jjj. Was great to meet a lot of people in person!

Was a long way up to get to the eyepiece on that 30" Dob, but the views were well worth it

Got up there yesterday afternoon intending to do some astrophotography in the evening and comet sweep in the morning. Peter Marples asked me if I had enough dew prevention in place, to which I replied yes as I had never had a problem...unfortunately by 1am the corrector plate had fogged up....oh well next year.

It was terrific to catch up with everyone.
But I'd also like to sincerely apologise to those I didn't say hello to and should have. I feel quite guilty about that.
I'll be posting more photo's soon.

Hi JJJ,
Your pics of the big dobs are great. Just want to thankyou for the aaa battery you gave me for the 30's ( Voyager ) temperature gadge. You saved the day.I owe you one.
Cheers Peter.

[jjjnettie (Jeanette)]

Yer welcome Peter.
Wish I could have spent some time having a look see. It's been years since I've looked through your scope. But I just don't "do" ladders any more.

Thanks for posting, looks like good time was had by all

Hey Graeme, I think I know what's wrong with your images now.

Thanks for posting Nettie, it was great fun. Always is. Way too short though. I wonder if it could ever become a two week event

2011 and counting
