Observatory complete at last!!

Hi all, Just thought I'd post a few photographs of my observatory complex here in Cornwall. It took my wife and I 10 months to near completion (No thanks to Alexander's observatories.........supplier review to follow) We have here 2 domes, and a cracking 12 foot by 20 foot roll off roof observatory, roof fully remote control with the Ascomm board. this is my life's dream and I finally found it in Cornwall. enjoy.......

Excellent, a big case of astro envy right here.

Enjoy it.

Great stuff! Not sure if I'm more jealous of the obs or the location!

putting something back here. This observatory will be opened up to local schools doing GCSE astronomy totally free of charge....the way education should be....

Very nice, with that sort of set up the place needs a name.

What a great thing to be doing..

"Observatory complex...." now that's just greedy!!! Looks like a great set-up in a nice location, with reasonably dark skies I presume? Hats off to you for opening the facility for others- good one.

Fantastic, well done.  As a teacher I really admire your generosity in your offer to the local schools.  Wishing you many clear nights to enjoy the fruits of your labour, you deserve it.

Looks like the perfect site for SGL11, though perhaps in the school holidays!

Time to sit back and enjoy the views - though from my own two years in Cornwall you may need to make frequent offerings to appease the weather gods!
