Hoegaarden Astronomy & Photography
With Capella we could book the gite for 5 weekends since October. Weather was not on our side, but still, the company and conversations, the equipment & scenery, it all adds up as a warm bath of astronomy.
Not to forget the darkness so profound you can cut squares in it.
With some patience the skies opened in Grandpré. We could enjoy those dark skies with 5 observers from our traditional “gite”. SQM measured 21,37 but the skies were still a bit hazy at that point, and improved visibly later on.
Work in progress: the area of the ‘Little Eagle’ in Taurus. It’s only 40′ of lights (I spent lots of time of learning how to image again 😉
Some more ambiance pictures taken with the Nikon D750 without tripod
