Southern Polar Point - you cant see it but now you can.....

To all intense and purposes this is not much of a photo but think out side the square.

In all my Time with the tracker it Was a case of not being able to line up so time to think out side the square. This a shot 200mm F4 For 9 min to get the stars to trail so I could then, see which way to adjust the head to get the circle in the center of the frame( lined up to the stars I cant see). This is the third shot and as you can see its perfect in the center- lined up to the southern point that I cant SEE.

The rest of the night went down hill after I turned the Tracker on the stars raced across the frame and out of the picture. I racked my brain why could this be happening.

NOT ALL BATTERIES are equal I had a new set of batteries with me 4x AA the tracker worked properly and I thought at the end of the night to prove all this works I have to up the time . 1 min perfect 2 min perfect.

It is a case of never give in, trust yourself after all this time I have now bought a 16H storage battery so I can plug into the tracker and never rely on AA batteries.

Look at the next shot the very last of the night 2min @ ISO 800.
