Scopes back... game on.

My scope mount is back and fixed from David Hinds. New RA motor, fixed under warranty... now that makes a change.

Took this image of Venus last night. Venus is a tricky planet to image... I'm finding out.
I don't think the scope was properly cooled down either. But it's nice to be out again. :-)
