Does your setup see through clouds Seems that's all I have lately, or drizzle/damp so no chance of getting the scope out.
Nice shot.

Haha I feel your pain. I only started at the beginning of Nov and it’s been awful. Monday night (30th) it was crystal clear though and managed to finally get some shots.

You have done well and you're not that far from me either.
I quite like Astrobackyard website for information and Tring astronomy for gear.

Cheers , it's certainly frustrating but the fact that I can do it from my patio makes it so much easier. I guess I'm a lazy photographer .

My house points the wrong way for that image but I should be able to find something else if I put in a bit of effort.
