  1. The thing is in Spain, it can be an absolute minefield to buy any property and even more so a nice rural one. In the end we chose not to buy a rural property in Spain even though we found many we liked simply because of the legal situation surrounding the land and such. There is so much that needs to be considered and the market is already flooded with cheap properties so it is going to be difficult even before you start. That said any extra selling point can and will help so definitely worth adding the extra info. Short of taking an ad out in an astromag or maybe even ABS I don't know what else you can do.
  2. So Leonids peaked last night? How did that get by without a mention.

  3. In the end I got a few opportunities early on but the clouds dominated. Still what I could see on screen was stunning, I saw the Venus transit but not through a scope and this well and truly made up for it. Tomorrow I will process the few avis I grabbed \nd see but early results seem okish.
  4. Well I have seen it through haze and have 2 avis taken of practically the same shot, looks as though it's a cloud dodger day today which is a vast improvement on earlier.
  5. Ye gads, I think I just did some astronomy

  6. Wow, it's been a grim year looking back but it's good to be posting some images again. Not a great deal of output compared to previous years but still a tough choice. All the Ha stuff taken with a PST stage 1 mod with either a ASI120mm or DMK41. The white light taken with a skywatcher 150PL and ASI120mm. I think I finally started to come to terms with mosaics, one of my better ones. This one shows the evolution of a prom, from memory it was 45 minutes or so. It lifted off completely after I stopped imaging. lol If I can find the data I may reprocess this one eventually. Loops AR2367 AR2339
  7. Wow, I can't believe I missed the showcase threads until now. Lets see what I can dig up. Actually it was my best year so far in terms of getting better planetary results which I put down mainly to the ASI120mm being a better performer than my other cams. Shame though I don't have a lot to choose from but here goes...... All imaged with a Skywatcher 150PL and ASI120mm, possibly a DMK41 for one of the images, maybe. Possibly my best ever Jupiter, not sure. Sorry about the cropping. Obligatory Saturn, tougher than I remember. So here is a double moon transit in 3 channels, I think it was probably taken on January 2. This one is not the best pic but it's of the triple transit last year, conditions were not optimal.
  8. Getting fed up with this humidity, 80% every night for two months. Arrgh!

  9. Going to need an arc if this rain keeps up.

  10. Yeah I saw this last night too and thought the last lot they did were hard to get hold of so I want in on this. Just trying to look now for delivery to Spain. http://www.build-solar-system.com/solar-system.php Edit: Looks like they don't do mainland Europe, shame that. I may have a solution though.
  11. It's clearing up, yay!

      Well, 1 Perseid and that was all, nothing on camera I think either.

      That is one more than me, Jarrod! Forecast went downhill for us, it was looking good at one stage, moon tucked out the way for later as well! Hoping for some weekend Sol now, just rain and rain here Thurs and Fri! Look forward to you being back in business. Hope all has gone well!

      I saw two the night after but dozed off towards the end. Things have gone pretty good with the move, messy but good. Looks like cloud and downpours though this weekend.

  12. Moving house Friday and without realising it I think I may have had my last astro session here. :(

      Cheers guys! That is true Gutross, I actually think the LP may be a bit better there. Time will tell.

      Thanks Jules, glad you have settled in now. It's a bit chaotic at the moment here but I think we are on track. Not panicking just yet.
