New here, from Eastern NC

[imrubbr_urglue]

Hey everyone...I'm Jess....34, live in NC, married, Mother of 5.
LOVE the sky, specifically, the stars.....And love getting my camera out and taking photos of them.
I know how to work my camera pretty well, not so much my telescope...so I just stick to taking pictures with my DSLR.
One day I'll find the time to sit down and figure the ins and outs of my telescope.

Lately, i've been trying to focus more on taking pictures of the Orion Nebula and Betelgeuse

I don't really know what else to say, lol....HI!!

Anybody else from NC?

Hey Jess, I'm from Eastern NC as well. Goldsboro to be exact. They have a lot of star parties around the area, so lets stay in touch and I will inbox you any news and gatherings that will be in the area. And what part of ENC are you from? Cheers!
