And following the usual laws from that ******* Murphy, my new CentralDS 600 Pro II arrives the week after AF. When it's cloudy and raining.
Damn you Murphy!!!!!

Really wanted to make Astrofest this year but just couldn't get out of some work commitments. Great that you guys had such good weather. Thanks all for sharing your experiences and photos, really enjoyed looking at them. Hope to be there next year!

Dates for 2016
Now you can start planning for 2016. Received e-mail from Astrofest committee member, Wendy as follows:-
The date for the New Moon for Astrofest next year is 3rd August, 06:45 hours – Queensland time (UTC 20:45 hours on 2nd August).
The camp dates are 29th July to 7th August 2016. So you can start booking your time off work now!
Regards,
Wendy

Not sure if we are able to make Astrofest next year... Looking to visit Ularu in the middle of the year, don't think we can afford both.
