CCD vs Film? Lots of time vs no patience? Alright, this is your place to discuss all the astrophotography what's and what's not. You can discuss about techniques, accessories, cameras, whatever....just make sure you also post some nice photos here too!
it seems that the 'clear' season here is from November to April. Last night, it was cloudless, and there was a distinct nice variance in shades of colours due to the setting sun. Even from the city, one could make out the Belt of Venus which is a subtle warm colouration at the opposite horizon of the setting sun. But because of the latitude, the process of the sun setting takes a slightly longer time as compared in Singapore, and one could start stargazing or imaging only after 9PM! It's summer...
