  1. Thank you so much for your reply it's come just in time. I'm actually in the Pyrenees now. I've spent the last couple of nights at a place called Lac de Bious Artigues in the Laruns area. Crystal clear skies so far but the forecast is for it to turn soon. You've given me lots of great info just when I was wondering where to go next, thank you.
  2. Lol, that reminds me - pack sunglasses.
  3. I've got 2 weeks off work, a campervan ready to go and the Plymouth to Roscoff ferry booked for Weds evening. The intention is to drive to somewhere in the Pyrenees for a week of nightscape/landscape astrophotography (call it what you will I'm talking about photos of picturesque mountains with the Milky Way in the background). I've never been to the Pyrenees and have very little knowledge of the area so any advice or location suggestions would be much appreciated. Currently my only thoughts are to visit the area near Pic du Midi de Bigorre purely because I know there's an observatory there and so hopefully dark skies. My main concern is obviously about the weather but the forecast for the end of this week is looking good. Any longer term forecasts quite frankly I don't trust. Anyone with any tips or advice I'd love to hear from you.

    Astrophotography Year 1

    My first year of astrophotography. From a few unguided shots with a faulty canon 300D and a second hand scope to my first few attempts with a CCD and narrowband filters.
