lilrugrat Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Hi All,My name is Annie and I live in Western Australia. I have just taken an interest in astrophotograhy since my first camera purchase, a Nikon d7100 about 4 months ago....so I'm a newbie all round!!!!!!!!!! EEEEEKKK!!!! I love the prospect of taking milky way shots and then moving on from there, tho my first investment is an appropriate lens......will pick everyones brains later! Thankyou for this group and look forward to chatting and learning much from you allCheersAnnie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
