Although I brought my telescope, it was a small camera tracker and lens that collected my first ever image of the Rho Ophiuchi Cloud Complex.
Thank you to everyone that stopped by to say hello at the 2019 Cherry Springs Star Party!

The positive vibe on this channel is so addictive! It’s great to see all the collaboration and learning! Thanks Trevor! I’m glad the haze didn’t ruin the star party!!

Trevor you should have talked to that guy after that night,I think he was blown away xD
-
Putting a water weight, that is a genius idea! I'm Aussie and even I haven't seen that level of engineering complexity.

Thank you ❤️😊❤️

Beautiful! Thanks Amigo. I always enjoy your work.

Wow - that is awesome!! I had an idea in my head that I could get those blues reds and yellows in one image with my Esprit 80. I had a go with my 760D and 18-50 kit lens but it just wasn't as sharp and as clear as me telescope. So last week I put my plan into action and accumulated 6.3 hrs of imaging over three nights (my longest yet) and spent most of Sunday learning how to stitch it into a panorama (I learnt a lot on Sunday!!) To be honest I was little disappointed with my final image but extremely satisfied that all of that planning and imaging actually produced something. I still have a lot to learn and as I write this I unpaused it at your image to hear you speaking to that gentleman about the colours and M4 and I am excited - I absolutely love this piece of our sky!!!!!!!!!!!! We are expecting our first significant rainfall here in Northampton, Western Australia over the next week which will suppress the dust and clear the sky coming into winter and am looking forward to doing it all over again. Thank you very much for sharing this inspiring video! D

Decades ago at the Grand Canyon Star party, I stared at Antares for over 10 minutes in exquisitely black skies and the surrounding star fields glimmered like diamonds, and the dark channels were easy to see. I felt as though I could discern color although I know it just my preconception. A memorable night among fellow stargazers and even David Levy was there. Star parties are great.

Great video Trevor. Makes me want to go to a star party one of these days. Love your image at the end. Keep up the good work! You've come a long way with this channel!

Wow, such a magnificent picture and video Trevor. Man, your videos are aresome, keep up the good work!
-
Awesome photo! just wow!

Really great content you are producing Trevor! When I first was introduced to the night sky I wondered why more people do not know more about it. I think astronomy can be for recreation and for experts. Thank-you for your commitment to both!

This channel is underrated.
