The recent trip down to Esperance (1652 km round trip) I got to go out to Observation point with the Grand children and son in law. I had them sit still till I was finished them, they could move on the wooden platform. Once I finished I sat down with them and showed them parts of the sky /milky way and answered there question. You will note a little left over light from sunset as we went out at 7pm. This is about 200 degrees of view of the night sky Esperance is the far right. Seemed to have caught an Asteroid shower as they are in all 4 Shots of the area. The real sad part is when I removed the lens next morning I noted the depth of Field ring had come loose from the focusing ring, don't look as critically as I do, super glued back in place at the right place.

This is some thing I have always wanted to take after I took it on Feb 2019 this is purely us under southern skies. this is never seen in the northern hemisphere only seen south of the equator and why you cant miss them as they are so bright in the night sky. So I used my 105mm Nikon lens to take a 3 shot panorama of the area over the last three night. The Points of Interest is what we see every night the Southern Cross and the Pointers not forgetting the head of the Emu between them both. The detail in the shot was an outstanding bonus but certainly no spectacular nebula in the shot its all about the stars and there is plenty of them. This was 80 shots a night for the three night getting each panel together. Each night it was a manual focus ZWOASI071MC -10 80 shots per the 3 nights 450 sec rotated 73 degrees.
