You know it's winter when .... Your dinky little ZWO is at -25c and only 58% cooler power 😍

OMG what is this .... c ... c ...clo .... cloud! stuff. It's been a long time.

It's nice having a solid internet connection that lets you use live video streams remote. Focusing, planetary and lunar imaging aren't a problem. #remoteastronomy #astrophotography

It was all hapenning in one corner of the observatory last night - flat frames, polar alignment, reconfiguration! Great night, great skies. #Astrophotography

Beautiful twilight with Venus, on-site for a new client install.

[Astro Observatories Western Australia @AstroObsWA]

My customers and I declared last night an absolute cracker of a night. Will tonight stack up? It would be hard but that sunset looks great!

MMMmmm a brand new QHY268c (thanks BinoCentral for the prompt service!) installed on the 11" RASA. Looking forward to seeing how that performs.

[Astro Observatories Western Australia @AstroObsWA]

A nice sunset on-site recently while doing some site maintenance. #remoteastronomy

[Astro Observatories Western Australia @AstroObsWA]

More progress on the RASA 11" to be available fore hire. Building up in my backyard observatory at this point before moving to site, the OTA and mount are now up. #remoteastronomy

[Astro Observatories Western Australia @AstroObsWA]

What a stunner of a night! #remoteastronomy

[Astro Observatories Western Australia @AstroObsWA]

Work starts on building up a new RASA 11" setup which will be made available for hire. First step - new holes in a disused but very solid pier. #remoteastronomy

[Astro Observatories Western Australia @AstroObsWA]

A stunning dead calm evening on-site tonight. #astrophotography #remoteastronomy

Any artificial light that is not needed is a pollutant that has serious and harmful consequences. Effective outdoor lighting reduces light pollution, leading to a better quality of life for all.

AOWA has gone solar! PVC system installed to cover the site's daytime power usage plus some. Looks awesome under the stars too :) #remoteastronomy #astrophotography #centralwheatbelt
