Hello everybody
this is Marco, 39 Years old from Heiligenkreuzsteinach in a region called "Odenwald" near Heidelberg in Germany. I have been an enthusiastic astro beginner since the end of 2020. At the moment, mainly getting to know and optimizing my hardware and software. But always waiting for a clear sky. starting with Moon through a C5 + Fuji XT-1 in February and now getting my first lights at some Nebulae Objects with my Scharpstar CF90 II Apo setup. I am looking forward to an exciting time and to collect light from all the fantastic and fascinating objects in the night sky. Many greetings and CS Marco
