Dave looks very disappointed! Cheer up Dave! :)

Not sure how much good the windbreaker would be for Phil's scope. :wink:

That last shot is looking directly east. Newport is in that direction so a little light can be seen depending on the humidity.

Overall I have a good site, just lots of bad weather!

tell me about it, I just spent the last 40 minutes centering the image and focusing with the canon+main scope and then centering a guidestar with the skylux, after aminute or 2 I realise my guidestar was gone!!!, I looked up, the clouds had just rolled in, I'm going to wait a small while to see if it clears, :?
so crap weather and crap light pollution. :x
