Snake Valley Pics

Heres the other montage I tried to send last night....its a bit fuzzy, the original was pin sharp but in downsizing it lost a lot of definition.

The last night was fantastic! Darren, Steve and I stayed up the whole night observing whilst Bird got some shut-eye for an early start at Saturn around 5am.
Steve gave me a tour of Planetary Nebulas, and I also captured my best Orion Neb shot yet!

The whole night ended up as clear as a bell, until about 6am when Bird was ready to start imaging!!!

It turned out that all 4 nights were great viewing. Friday was excellent all night, and if you were keen enough to wait until 2am, Sat Sun and Monday nights were all great too.

A thought for the future: ignore the weather reports up here

Well going by all the great photos it easy to see the camp was a huge success.
Again many thanks to ken and Darren for all there work. To the people of Snake Valley many thanks for your hospitality. The Saturday dinner was great.
Also to the work of the SVAA.

The Snake Valley camp happens twice a year November and March and I would encourage anyone thinking of going to do so. You will love it.

Again Great photos all.

Great pics guys. Wish I could have been there for a few more nights.
Thanks again for the hospitality, and thumbs up for Ken and Darren's organising skills.
