My trial was to try and take a photo with Nina while it did not work 100% the resultant photo give me some hope. nighttime-imaging.eu and use the Nuc away from home with a mini screen 7" and mini keyboard. while not what I was after it is still a shot and happy with that. what I was suppose to get and what I got where two very different things this is a program you build yourself how you want it to behave, so it may have been unlucky as a 7" screen is small and we where using a magnifying glass to try and see the small print on the small screen.. but it did work I have stars tp prove it.

Three friends on a night with the moon all of doing trials out of the city on a farm. Mine worked (sort of got a photo) , Carlos focuser for Guiding did not so his trial ended quick, Brendan was able to get the info he needed. This is 13 shots at 9:30 pm just before the clouds vanished at 10 pm. We all slept out here for the night the groups new Dark Site. It was a lovely night to be out under the stars with some like mined company. If you look above my car far left you can see the city lights of Perth and we are about 40 min from Perth . The morning temp was 3c yep it was cold but was nice when the sun came up. we shared the place with other campers if you look you can see the fire above my car and light to the left in the trees but in general we had the place to our selves and the Kangaroos that visited...

This was a night I was to take Clara and pick up in 2 hours the night was my own. I have not seen quite so much rain so I took my water proof lens and headed out into the night. I was forced to shelter under the Bridge as a heavy rain went over head. Look on the left side of the bridge to see the water draining off the bridge. These photos came from the same night nothing short of stunning....................... Never give in.

For those that would like a little more info see the link below. not a perfectly still night but still like the effect of the lights on the water. this changes colour to suit what is being celebrated I believe this was"Ladies Day". This shot was a 100% manual set up to get the shot I wanted and keep the exposure short just in case there where any stars showing but a big stretch F14. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matagarup_Bridge

Not a sight you want to run across at night or day you have no control here.

A shot from my head, years of reading Terry Brooks for years and painting in my head the words from the pages (Elf Lost in the Back Forest). I got the chance with Jess to try and bring out my ideas but it meant going into the trees spiders, bugs and real dark. not a shot you are likely to see ever again straight from my imagination ............ enjoy a concept and a purely manual shot . Well worth the view large on black you get to see the shot I had in mind.

A shot you would not get, taken from the top of the Fremantle Port Authority building. I was lucky one of our customers took me up and let me shoot some photos A truly elevated view.. Part of the back catalog as no moving about at the moment even here.

A lot more info to read part of history. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OTC_Satellite_Earth_Station_Carnarvon
