A little parcel from Steve arrived today :)

I just picked up the parcel from Steve today, the content was Making Every Photon Count. Having just thumbed through it I can say that there is a lot of neat stuff for me to learn. He is very thorough. Everything from equipment to processing, from collimating to tracking. He even has a section on how to make your own pier in concrete

He was even so kind as to include som red candy wrapper so I could nightvisionize my battery tank and headlamp.

The weather is actually not bad today. But I decided to stay home and read my book, charge the power-tank and do laundry. The clouds are supposed to roll in later, and since I have been so stressed out as soon as there is a clear night, I decided to take the Zen-approach and stay inside. Learning not to get stressed out over weather will probably turn out to be the best lesson I can learn if I'm supposed to survive this hobby. Like people say, the stars aren't going anywhere.

Thanks Steve for putting the 101 of AP to print!

It is a great book (should I say 'bible' - sorry Mods no religious connection intended!)

Hey, who ate the candy? Oh yes, I remember now, it was me .....

Delighted to hear that it arrived quickly, Carl.

So every book will now include an LED astronomical conversion kit, free of charge. Great marketing gimmick Steve.

Great buy, I wish I'd bought this when I first started out, although I'm only a year into imaging so I guess I could still learn a lot if I bought a copy.

It's well worth getting a copy, and reading it

Hi,

I received a parcel from Steve to-day too, but I am not telling you what it is.

Well OK I will give you hint, it is tubular, white and has 6 bolts. It comes between the legs and the moving part of a NEQ6.

You need to be good at guessing as there are no Instructions!!.

Regards mijijim.
