orion is up :) 5am

What's all this talk of Orion? We'll have no trouble here.

We haven't even had a summer yet and Orion is back on the agenda. I can't keep up.

Though I look forward to the long nights, I am quite happy to enjoy a few warming rays from the Sun before getting thoroughly immersed in telescope sessions. I only tend to do morning sessions when there is sufficient darkness to spend a lengthier amount of time on the sky.

Roll on Virgo!

I'm not quite ready to give up on the summer either. Perhaps by the end of the month...

I've just finished a set of nightshifts and also spotted Orion for the first time this "winter" the other night/morning. It was just a pity I didn't have any bino's with me. I've been trying to spot the Pleiades, but with several nights of cloud cover, the only night of clear skys they were drowned out by the moon. 2 days off now, so fingers crossed.....
