Hello from France

[Bg13]

Hello all,

We have been in France for over a year now and had a telescope a lot longer than that, we enjoy looking at the  Sky and the lack of light pollution here really helps, the stars are amazing. 

We didn't fully understand how to use our scope but  we do not live too far from Andrew and Sue Davies who have set up  Astrofarm where we have been to learn about astrophotography and how to use our scope. 

The photography we have done so far while not the greatest has shown us the possibilities and are now looking for a goto set up for our eq5 mount.

Hope this is not too rambling, cheers for now.

Hi and welcome to SGL - Great to have you on board. It can be a little solitary when you are outside of the UK, so you are very lucky to have folks around you

Look forward to seeing you around

Welcome! A lovely region and good for astronomy I believe. The advantages of being an ex-pat should be making themselves felt by now......... (I was one for 8 years).
