Beautiful night!

Hi Carl, Happy Easter to you and yours hope you all had a great day. I've just started using NKremote for the d90. It gives a live view on the laptop, it gets the focus in the ball park but is quite grainey in low light. It also gives you an instant view of any shot you take which works well for focusing, much easier to see than on the laptop than on the camera screen. For anything over 30 second exposure I have to use the infra-red remote to open the shutter and time the shot and then close the shutter but at least I don't have to touch the camera, it also lifts the mirror 2 seconds before opening the shutter to allow the vibration to settle.

Ps. hope the kids enjoyed the few pints! ;o)

That’s great should have no problems there. As for the kids they’re sleeping sound :>)),The best thing about roundwood is it’s so dark if everything goes well you’ll be hooked:>)). :devil: :devil:

Thats the problem Carl I'm already hooked, never been so interested in the weather!

I know the feeling. If the weather plays ball we’ll have some amount of data to process. Reggy weight till you see the amount of work that goes into this for one image. You’ll have to fight for every pixel earned, Sleeping is overrated anyway :>))

Totally, just wasted time you'll never get back.

Hi Reggy,
It’s looking great for Saturday night weather conditions look perfect. ( Met.ie- Saturday and Sunday. Both nights will be very cold and frosty, with temperatures as low as -2 or -3 C., in places and there may well be some icy patches also.) Hopefully they are right.

Carl.
