Watsons Way - August 2008

Photo's from the ASWA SDSO trip to Watsons Way Farmstay in August 2008.

The ASWA SDSO made another trip to Watsons Way in August of 2008. The trip was preceeded by a day of very heavy rain in the area, resulting in very moist conditions. The first night was clear but had extreme dew conditions, the second night was clear with less dew but had patchy cloud until about midnight when we were clouded out.

As a result of the unusually poor viewing conditions I didn't take many astro photo's on the trip. This gallery contains what there is from the nights of observing.
