For those who couldn't make it to the PC tonight, this is what you missed.

I only stayed for an hour to test the new 50mm lens. This is a stack of 19 ten second frames taken on a tripod with a 450D and a Sigma 50mm F1.4.
Thanks Deeno for being there. Hope you have a great night!

....and I'm home....
Hate to say but, I've had a pretty good night.
Bit breezy to start, with the occasional gust of stiff breeze. the seeing was on the ordinary side for most of the night. Certainly a lot better than what I could of hoped for....and....everything is dry. No dew!

It was certainly a surprise to see someone else turn up. Must be pleased with the 50mm John....

When I left it was a balmy 7.1 degrees, 75% humidity and calm.

Sorry to read about your Aunt Geoff. Sounds like the end of an era.

And I'll be sparing a thought or two for your wife, Rod. I sincerely hope everything comes out OK.
