Hello from Scotland

Hi Ron and a warm welcome to SGL from a fellow Photographer turned Astro Photographer.

Yes, it is a very steep learning curve, but worth the effort for the results you can get. Being able to turn a grey smudge, which is what you see, enhance the detail and turn it into a permanent image gives you a fantastic sense of achievement. 

Happy Stargazing and enjoy your Astro journey.
