Hi there. I just registered and send my greetings to you. I do visual observing of the skies because it keeps me wondering. Since I enjoy looking at some impressive photographs of yours, I plan to capture some objects with my phone and my panasonic-compact in the future.

Take care, Samuel

Hi Samuel

Greetings from Basel. Happy to have one more from Switzerland here.

And about your photography plans: Yes, that is how it starts - just some photos with your compact…. and soon your account is a 5-digit amount lighter…. ;-)

But hey, it is all worth it - so don't worry and enjoy the ride!

Kind regards,
Sascha

Thank you for the welcome. Though I'm not that "5-digit-amount-ambitious" I'd say: As long as I spend more time than money for this, I guess it'll be worth it.

Cheers
