Greetings all,

Returning to astronomy after a 15 year gap.  Usual score, getting on a bit, spare time and cash to throw at the hobby.
Pulled the plug on a basic starter setup just before Crimbo, and managed to get some very pleasing (to me and mine) shots in a relatively short time.

Still loads to learn, but with each shot and failure, I'm driven to improve.

I never realised how many cloudy nights we have until owning an astronomy setup!
Well Written Respectful Engaging
