Steve, you're welcome to use the images from the thread I already listed. Unfortunately all my images from saturday night have a real twist to them and I don't have the photoshop skills to fix them. Jeanette has listed her wide field images here and I'm sure she would allow you to use them as well.

[edit]
I counted 47 stars outside tonight

Thanks very much Robin, we'd love to use some of those on our photo's page, you got some excellent results there!

I'll confirm with Jeanette that we can post some of hers as well.

(For those who aren't aware, Jeanette's setup was positively tiny - a $300 odd dollar mount, no telescope, a G-Star camera with a Canon lens screwed on the front end - and for various reasons by Sunday morning she had captured some amazing images where others had enjoyed little success. Her innocuous little setup, even though surrounded by heavy duty mounts, high quality scopes, and a blistering array of other quality gear, was outperforming most if not all. There were plenty of joking comments about "Sabotage" when she wasn't looking.)

Alex I know you had some tech/incompatibility problems there, but the image you did get is a beaut. I'm just wondering how good your images will be next time once you have your issues sorted out, looking forward to finding out.

I finally getting around to read all the posts and view the pictures.
I enjoyed the time at Barambah and learned a lot, many interesting conversation and fantastic views.

Thanks to all of you and especially the organizers for the hard work that is required to put on such a fantastic event.

I had a good trip back, and by coincidence happen to pass through Cambroon, your usual observing place. I love the scenery through the Mary valley, it remaids me of the Emmenthal in Switzerland, where I grew up.

Thanks for having me!

Jakob.

Jacob, it was a pleasure to meet you, You should have dropped in for a cuppa and a chat
See you sometime in the future

Alex it's great news that you have your gear co-operating again, so if there's a brief version how did you deal with the apparent conflict your gear was suffering?

Jakob great to hear that your trip home has gone well, and next time I'm out at Cambroon I'll think of Switzerland.

As Ron said it was a pleasure to meet you, and as I said at Barambah if you're up this way again, irrespective of whether there's a camp or no, full moon or no, please get in touch as we'd be pleased to catch up with you again.

It was a USB port related conflict Steve, that and the fact that my guide cam doesnt like running off a powered hub.. 1x4m extension cable later, it all works good as gold.
