A little about me...

[metalman]

Hi All

I'm Steve and after lurking on the forums for the last 18 months, I thought I would introduce myself...

I have been on the planet for over 40 years now and although I had an early interest in the Solar System and an A Level in Geology, I never really looked up until now.

The recent addition of a couple of kids prompted me to relearn some of the knowledge I have lost over the years and so about 18 months ago I bought myself a pair of 15 x 70 binoculars to have a look at the moons of Jupiter and the Moon and from then on I was hooked.

After soaking up as much knowledge as I can from this wonderful set of forums I have now progressed to a SW 120ED refractor and have started to dabble in Webcam imaging and imaging some of the Messier objects with a DSLR...

I have also combined my background in computing with astronomy to setup EQDIR to control it all.

Looking forward to pestering you with daft questions...and to clear skies so we can all get out there over Christmas.

Steve
