Hi folks.... Finally got round to replacing my broken bins (I haven't graduated to a telescope yet), and was just lookin for some observing spots. I went to Ranmore Common last Thurs, a big improvement on my back garden! I was just wondering if anyone here has tried Leith Hill.......

Hi all from Surrey/Hants borders I've been astroimaging for nearly 2 years totally self taught/Youtube (so probably doing a whole bunch of stuff incorrectly :-)). Just bought a ASI1600MM/EFW and waiting for clear skies to try out as what I can do currently is limited by DSLR and Bortle 7 back garden. Will post images when I have something new...

hi Stu640 good to see some people local too! will be good to catch up / meet with everyone soon - hoping for some clear nights ! Once got some clear nights ahead will suggest a couple of dates, Ranmore common is nearest semi dark place im familiar with so suggest that as a starter

Jam1e1, I'm just off Jn 8 too - Reigate. Don't get the chance to get out much, but good to know there's folks local!

Near junction 8 of m25 Stu - good for travel!

Whereabouts are you @jam1e1?

hi Stu Bignor is good - been there once but over 2 years ago - not for a while! Hoping to get there again soonish again. Normally head to Ranmore, if its looking good can plan to head there - though weather not holding out too well at moment! Likewise if can get in a session would be good. Jamie

Hi Jam1e1, Our Group went to Bignor on Friday, was pretty good. Where do you normally go? Ranmore? I’m at SGLSP in Lucksall for next new moon. May be able to sneak another session in next week but probably not a very late one. Stu

Business trip next week and off for a dark Starparty around the next new moon. So suggest some dates and locations. Peter

hi all Been a while since a meet up has been organised! Would be good see who is about (all welcome) and then arrange a meet up, so please drop a note to say hi if you are up for a meet up soon. Weather this week not looking great so will keep an eye out, hopefully sometime next week if weather improves! Jamie
