Hello Friends,


First of all I want to say thank you to all of you. Especially those of you whose photos inspired me and taught me so much.

The big-wall-function and the picture-informations you shared helped me a lot on my first steps! Thank you!

Due to my first succesfull shots, I finally want to introduce myself and join the comunity:

My Name is Konrad I'm 30 and work as therapist in Würzburg - Germany.

Currently I'm runnig a 4" Maksutov on a Star-Adventurer mount. Not a perfect combination, but possible... to a certain point I guess...



I startet in early Summer this year and I'm quite proud of my first attempts, and allways happy about critisism, inspiration and new ideas,..so feel free!


♄ Saturn




⚸ Luna


My current project is M13 with the little mak, but the first attempts went terribly wrong.
Deepskystacker did not recognize more than 6 or 7 stars. I guess I have to try longer exposures next time.

clear skies and thanks again,

k
