The Wind shields were from Tesco, they have steel poles and were quite cheap I recall as I bought two, something like £12 each.  

Quotei am disappointed i thought you would have taken your skypod there  
:cheesy:, Do you know SkyPODshed say you can take them to star parties, can you imagine it - the transportation and time it takes!!

I haven't unpacked the car yet, as I only got back at about 6.30 last night and just took out the essentials as I was too tired.  I did some preliminary post processing at Kelling (just for reassurance), and also finally got to grips with High Pass filter while I was there.  Was going to leave all the astro kit in the car ready for Saturday, but I'll see if I can dig out the laptop.

Some-one on SGL managed to get an image of the aurora.  It's a 30sec sub so picked up much more than the eye could see.  I didn't see all that red, but my 5min subs cooking away on M101 were very red.

As I say I also saw white beams as well.
