It’s like they’re speaking some weird language that’s a bit like English such that you can pick out an occasional word that you recognise then they’re adding in some words that they just made up simply to throw the reader off the scent and keep their arcane intentions secret.

 

A bit like Law, or Programming

Interesting choice of date... on 6-8 I'm 'glamping' at a star party...

Funny that.... I seem to be doing something remarkably similar

WTF does “glam ping at a star party” actually mean ? 🤔

I've never thought about it much but I always presumed that one of the nice things about taking photos of the stars would be the quietness at night and being alone staring up at the infinite.... not a posh party where everyone happens to have a big camera pointing upwards. But you learn something new every day!

If you are in the dark for six hours while your gear does all the interesting stuff on its own with minimal intervention, it's much more enjoyable with a mate to chat to.

When imaging at home I spend most of the time on forums or what'sapp.

Plus, a star party is essentially the same as a bass bash -  a chance to share your interest with like-minded folks face to face.

I want to come to this - not sure it's worth me bringing any kit though?

You'll be welcome with or without :)

And, based on your avatar, we can talk saxophones if we get bored of the basses (but don't tell any of the others I said that.  Oh...wait a minute...).
