Spring is here and it's time for some deep sky imaging! Unfortunately it can be a bit too deep to get into my observatory. Right now it's piling up at the rate of 2 inches per hour :C

Well,that looks all too familiar,at least the snow part.
2" an hour piles up pretty fast wink

I have been fortunate to have a fairly mild winter as opposed to 06 when we got hit by 3 blizzards in about a 5 week span.At one point I had nearly 4ft of snow that did not want to melt away 8O

It did encourage me to build an observatory though grin

Hope you get some better weather soon!

Dreaming about what is behind the door :-)! I would be out in it even in the snow... drooling... Do you have photos of the inside? Street address? Maybe tell me where the spare key is? I would be happy to clean up smile

Yeah, yesterday, I spent two hours cutting grass, including that around my observatory.

The AP white looks great on the observatory.

Sorry to see that the weather is not cooperating with many of us, but I'm sure it will change soon enough! 8)
