The Dangers of Astrophotography

Danger Signs #2.

Once again I've found myself on the edge or point of no return. The first sign I posted a few weeks ago just said to be careful not to fall over the cliff, this one however is a little more serious.

I like the bit in red "You go beyond this point entirely at your own risk".

Thanks for looking.

Very Cool Carlos.

More than one way to interpret that sign.......

I know, I went past the point of no return a while back

Cheers

Chris

Thanks Dave

That's so true! I haven't mentioned this yet but this particular night on my way south to Kiama I got pulled over by the cops, thinking I was about to get a speeding ticket I began preping myself for a heated discussion as I was certain I had not been speeding, instead I was informed that my car was unregistered and therefore uninsured $1180 fine arrrgh!!!

Long story short I thought it had already been done, my bad.

Drove home, went online, paid the rego and took to the road again.

A very expensive night out indeed.

Note I was gratefull that I had been pulled over and not in some road accident where I might have injured or worse killed another person...

Always look on the bright side of life
