Just grabbed and went..!

[Helen]

Hi guys,

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but had to share that my grab and go set-up (Megrez 90 on Giro mini and camera tripod) just came up trumps! Got a gap in the (rapidly rolling, 'cos its very windy!!) clouds and managed to get my first view of Orion this season and with the new scope - I love it!! Only had 15 minutes before the clouds came again, but its like having an old friend back! Even with just the 16 UWAN I could clearly pick out the trapezium. Just managed to catch quick glimpses of Plaides and Hyades too. Probably just as well it clouded over, I'd have been there for hours, and there's work tomorrow...

Night!

I confess to envying your grab & go set-up!

(I wish someone would buy Gordon's Ambermile Aztech and remove the temptation!!!)

If I hadn't just committed to buying Dave's Skywatcher 150mm refractor - I'd have bought it already
