A great piece on astrophotography featuring work by Noeleen Lowndes, who does a lot of her photography in the dark skies south-west of Toowoomba. Dylan O'Donnell from Byron Bay is also featured, who has had past work presented on NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day.

Over the last few days, two of our members have captured Comet C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE) in the sky near galaxies. The first image by Tel Lekatsas has NGC4826 in the frame (also known as the 'Black Eye Galaxy' for good reason). The second by Trevor McDougall shows the comet near NGC4251. The comet was in reality nowhere near the galaxies since it is a solar system object, and the galaxies are millions of light years away from our own Milky Way galaxy.

Hi lovely folks! Myself + telescope will be visiting Toowoomba this week. I'm not very familiar with the area for stargazing - where in or around Toowoomba would folks recommend? Thank you in advance ^_^
