It rained almost every night from Oct 1st until the end of the year. Just a handful of semi-clear nights. Finally, end of the year -- perfectly clear. I was at my dark site with all my gear plus a new camera I got for Christmas -- a Fujifilm X-A2. But I forgot to bring my guidecamera... So I had to shoot 20s subs when I really needed 300s subs. Anyway, at least I got something.
