JamesF Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 Drop dead gorgeous here. Beautiful clear sky, seeing appears to be very good, and the Milky Way looks majestic.Mind you, a full Moon would look majestic right now. This is my first night out since 4th September, and not for lack of trying. The weather has been that bad for that long James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bambuko Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 After such an un-promising start, it ended up being extremely good night here in Devon and my latest epay acquisition (Vixen LV 25mm) passed the test with flying colours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
