After a long run of cloud, fog, rain, etc I finally got a clear night last night with some decent seeing.

This image was taken with the scope in it's portable setup, the final check out before it gets packed into the car and off to Nambucca Heads for a couple of weeks of sun and perfect seeing on the east coast (fingers crossed).

cheers, Anthony
