Clear night!!

Clear skies, freezing temperatures, imaging... whats not to like!!

Well, except that great big white Moon thing...

Picture is me at my regular astro site now that the back garden is hemmed in by trees and childrens trampolines..

Looks like a nice site with clear views. Glad to see you wrapped up well. I love the long cold nights for imaging, even if the moon is out.

Well the Moon at least made for the fantastic lighting in your picture! :-)

Competition: Name the constellation(s) behind him....

It was a bit parky - got through a huge flask of hot tea and a huge amount of chocolate to keep warm  It's a nice site a mile north of the village where I live; it's a caravan site during the summer months and the owners sons are in my boys class at school so it all works out rather well...

That'll be me... I set up a DSLR (I was going to do a timelapse but never got round to it) and left it running for 20 images... in 19 of them I looked pretty gruesome - blurred usually. In one I looked like I could stay still!

There's nothing better than a good cuppa to keep you warm
