sambarber Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 So glad to have found a place were I can talk to people who have more experience than me and don't think that I'm a nerd. I'm a teenager who has loved astronomy and has a dslr, two telescopes, and two mounts, one of which I am selling for better equipment. Please don't think that I am a newbie because I have done extensive research on astrophotography and am currently ordering an Ioptron Smart eq pro. I know what a planetary nebula is, what diffuse/dark nebulae are and what a galaxy is and have seen numerous of the through my telescopes. Cannot wait to get out there again!Clear Skies,Sam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldpink Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 welcome to SGLpeople think I'm a total nerd and I'm 50, just because I can use a computer (I work in IT) and am into astronomyI'm just an average guy that likes to think about the universe we live in and study it, rather than looking at the pavement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
