Do we know if there are any potential new owners in the M33 Triangulum galaxy?
Incredible images. How long does it take you to find what you’re looking for?

Thanks everyone. @Frigby Daser, it doesn’t take long these days. I have a bit of kit that acts as a controller which includes GoTo software and slews the mount to my desired target. |

Not yet- my western horizon is blocked by buildings (and clouds and shit). I may have to take the kit for a drive when it gets a bit clearer. |

@ Fuzzy. Greetings from Cape Town. We’re off today to a place called KAGGA Kamma. https://www.kaggakamma.co.za/A remote ‘hotel’ spa and other things. The other things for me is tonight and tomorrow I’ll in pitch black looking at the Milky Way from the southern hemisphere. I am so excited and expect to have my breath taken away. Hopefully I can get some decent pics on my iPhone or iPad. If anything decent I’ll post when we’re back in civilisation as there is not internet of telephone. Should be fun. |

Lucky git!
Proper dark skies are breathtaking. Park yourself on a sunlonger and allow 10- 15 minutes for your eyes to adapt to the dark then enjoy.

I think this is by far my favourite thread on here thanks to Fuzzy.. I can't say i pretend to understand any complexities discussed, but the pictures are mental.. Top work that man |

The millions of light years blows my mind when I start thinking about it.
It's all very clever it's astro photography. A guy I used to work with made himself an observatory in his garden, and, being an electrical engineer, made and sold his own filters of some kind.
