September and October provide excellent night skies for observing and image making (weather permitting). The nights are still mild and darkness falls at a reasonable time.
Our dark skies are level 3 on the Bortle scale.
You are welcome to bring your own telescope (which can be put on one of our polar-aligned mounts) or you can select deep sky objects of your choice to image with our equipment. The caravan can be used as an on-site control centre.
