Hi guys 8) wow another camp done i think i have made a full recovery and as you all know I love these camps to bits and once again it did not disappoint even with the stoopid clouds hanging around I still managed to keep myself entertained lol as I knew Monday night would be a cracker of a night woohooo I got a little more sleep this time round as I got a cabin this time best thing ever haha I got 16 hours sleep all up woohoo the drive home kept me entertained and awake as It was like I was being a storm chaser all the way home pouring rain and lightening, dodging fallen down trees all over the road in some places. Yes there was a few people that I really did miss this camp but was great to catch up with the regulars and there was also a lot of new faces that I tried to annoy :p I hope I havnt scared them away too much haha it was nice to finally put a face to the MPAS crew ( funny bunch ) and omg Steve I couldn't help staring at your beautiful eyes all camp haha dam I bet you were fighting off the ladies back in the day :p
Learning how to do timelapse's and stacking images was fun I think I was a pain in the arse of a student though lol I tried to do some stacking last night and failed badly lol I couldn't even understand my own notes buahahaha :-\ I need more lessons ( Marty and Paula were not patient teachers) lol lol oh well next camp master classes will be back lol
I love my shower tent best purchase ever thanks Marty kept my lappy and books etc dew free all night yayyyyy now i can really get into my sketching without everything getting wet and the car battery lasted me the whole weekend woohoo
On monday night i had a great time with Wren challenging some new things to look at and comparing the two dobs I really enjoyed that thanks Wren you have made me need to spend more money and you have now got me into writing a diary each observing night it is a great idea hehe
Once again lots of laughs, great company I love my astro family a big round of applause to all that pulled together to make things run nice and smoothly I don't think I have ever seen the kitchen stay so clean lol lol
Niko you were way to quiet this time round I need to trip some of your wires next time hahahaha your pics looking good buddy
John I'm glad you changed your mind and came to camp I think you looked like you were really enjoying your self good on ya buddy xo
The only thing I hate about these camps is that I never got to say good bye to most of you you all do the sneaky pack up and leave during the only little time that I actually sleep lol lol mmmmm maybe I'm seeing a pattern here lmfao Dazza you owe me lots of hugs next time :-* is it November yet

Hey great shots there Jen! Your widefield work is coming along nicely.
Hey have you managed to get your timelapse together?
Should come out great with your camera facing South East with the rising milky way.
Found a few more snaps.

Cheers Daniel.
