old_eyes Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Just completed at fabulous week at Les Granges with Olly Penrice and Peter Goodhew. Superb weather and skies (so different to what I left behind in North Wales). Olly has already posted some of the fruits of our labours, and there will definitely be more to come. But in the meantime I offer this: I call it "A Weary Astronomer Rests After His Labours" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like you had a great time. Looks like some well deserved catch up of sleep. That what happens when you get clear Sky's, and the hours just fly by under the stars ☺ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ollypenrice Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Anyway, back to things serious! All three of our week's galaxy images have been given the 'top pick' ticket on Astrobin so, when awake, we didn't do too badly, eh? Olly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olly Probably all that fine observing weather and the altitude as well as the French way of life have helped Olly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olly Well, your output is so consistently good, it may seem to the rest of us that you can do this imaging stuff in your sleep, but anybody who has ever put a camera on a scope will know that it definitely isn't so.
