wallmana Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 I've just started getting back into Astronomy and Astrophotography since a few years away from it, a young family, busy work-life, other hobbies and cloudy skies have all worked against me over recent years to stop me getting out and about. Recently though it just seems to be the few evenings I do have to myself are cloudy. I suspect I'm not alone... Anyway, I attended the Kielder forest star camp in March and had such a great time that I booked in for the Autumn one immediately. I've even been promised equally good weather... I've got an 8" Orion optics Newtonian telescope on a Vixen GP mount with the starbook S controller and am getting to grips with using it. I have dreams of an autoguiding solution for it but need to balance time, cost and benefit. Hence I thought I'd join SGL to read some of the relevant posts, forums and make an informed decision.

JamesM Posted July 17, 2012 Share Posted July 17, 2012 Hi and welcome to the forum. I must get myself along to a Kielder star party one of these days as the skies by all accounts are certainly worth the effort for, you never know I might see you there at the next one!Clear skiesJames Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
