Hi from Northampton

Hi, I'm Megan,

I joined a while back but only just saying hello. I've always had an interest but was given my first scope, a Skywatcher 90mm refractor, for my birthday last July. Since then my interest has exploded and I'm very much into the Astrophotography side of things. I've just ordered a Skywatcher 200p reflector so I'm really looking forward to taking things to the next level when it arrives.

Below are a couple of my Moon, Jupiter and Mars pics from the past few days taken with my Canon 550D, prime focus on my refractor.

Hi Megan and a very nice collection of images. Looks like you have been seduced by the "dark art" so go steady with the budget - don't want your next picture of a black hole being the one in your purse!

Clear skies

A warm welcome to the SGL Forum Megan.

You've got some decent looking images from your scope and camera.

Good work indeed for a relative beginner, and you seem to know your way around the equipment.

Keep up the good start, it's a very addictive arm of astronomy, and expensive too .

Best Wishes.

Ron.

Hi & welcome to SGL, I'm not to far from you being near kettering myself. The 200P is a good scope too

Nice work Megan.

I particularly liked Mars, and you've already got nice images of Jupiter too. I wonder what you'll be able to produce with more aperture and Saturn?
