I think I'll get my Nikon D7200 out and experiment with some time lapse. Hell, may as well dust off the Celestron NexStar Evolution 6 and make a night of it!

IflyinWY, this has to be absolutely SPECTACULAR where you live!

any advise on setting would be good for future reference

You mean so you don't run out of battery ?
If so when I do Time lapse with it I plug it into a PowerBank I think it's 18,000 it'll go all night (like me )

I missed out. Had meant to put my D800 with 80-400mm on the Alta Pro 263 AT, but unfortunately I got caught up in some other matters of the heart... ;-)

I am not complaining, but it would have been different fun....

That's funny you would mention me.
I get to spend some evenings sitting in the hot tub looking at the southerly sky. It's been a great show since Sunday. Can't imagine what it was like last night though, I was studying the inside of me eyelids.
