Hi Barry, I got the message but was hoping for the best.
PS. I think it was my fault, just put together a new guidescope to use and the result..... a weekend of rain
Ah great, good to know you got the message mate. Yes, we will definitely try again. I am in the process of putting together some e-mail contacts for CASDAK and other photography outings around Canberra.
Hi Logan, I currently have the worst virus and have had to cancel quite a few things. Other than that, I am booked out until the 15th of June.
That said, We may be able to tee something up a few days leading up to next new moon. If you guys want to pick a night, I have the perfect dark location picked.
Forgot to mention, after seeing your unit Baz I made me a few dew heaters (with advice from Omaroo). Will be using these will an old Type VI Kendrick. The soldering part was messy!

Into the homebrew equipment already! Awesome. Just remember, with soldering..less is better. Next time you are over we can have a chat about the correct way to tin your wires.
If you look at the moon phase calendar on the left of the page here, it will give you the moon rise/set/phase times and dates. Usually, three or four days before new moon is good, right through to a couple of days after.
Here are a few of my first guided astro photos. They colour really comes out versus those 30s exposures that I've been taking until now! They're nothing special, but they're special for me
