thanks John, i didnt think at the beginning of the year id get near a 100, but by june id gone past it so set a higher goal. i think my next goal should be 175 for the year, i would like 200 but i think thats pushing it too far. clear skys charl.

thanks Dave, shooting from indoors do have its advantages like been setup all the time, not having to polar aline everyday, warm and out of the wind mostly ect, disadvantages range and sometimes a bit of detail with having to shoot sol before its climed too high. my next goal is 175. clear skys charl.

For 99% cloud that's a great set.

Well caught charl, you're dedication pays off once again. 

[Steve Ward]

Congratulations ... you're definitely well enough obsessed to be aiming higher though . but be warned the last couple of months when it's hanging low in the sky on those short days will send you mad if you're not careful ... 

 

On my 2014 'shot a day' quest it dominated everything , to the extent that the first things out of the van every day on site were mount , 'scope and laptop , tools came very much second in the workplace in Nov/Dec ... got some very strange looks but worth it as I ended the season with 311/365 ...
