Hello world!
I'm new to AP. Spent some time researching and watched about 100hrs of Youtube (lol). Then started acquiring equipment which was pretty tough and slow-going in the COVID-19 supply chain economy.

It took 4 months to finally get the mount but in that time I had equipped myself with the knowledge to avoid many beginner pitfalls thanks to this community's wonderful content creators and folks in forums like this. I have been really impressed by the welcoming and positive attitude exhibited by this community. A rare thing on the Internet these days and much appreciated!

I have a couple of projects under my belt so far and having a lot of fun. Cut my teeth on the Lagoon and just completed a two panel shot of the North America Nebula. Currently working on a wide shot of the Veil Nebula.

Clear skies!
