Lake Tekapo is a good place for an observatory, being relatively far away from other towns and cities (which cause light pollution) and having Mt Johns very close which serves as an excellent vantage point. We were rather annoyed to discover that the road is closed off at night (probably to increase numbers in their own expensive night tours) but it turned out to be a bright moonlit night so we couldn't see any stars anyway! This shot was actually taken early the next morning just before heading off on the final leg of our NZ journey.

'Nuff said ... for now.
