Just joined the site.

attended a stargazing event with Robert Ince at Mere sands recently.

couldnt believe the amount of stars even meteors I could see compared to where I live which was only 25 mins away from where I live.

im now well hooked.

ive only got binoculars at the moment as I need to learn the sky. 

Would like a telescope but will wait and seek advice as their are loads and it’s mind boggling trying at my stage to sort it out.

however I was amazed at what I could see through the bins, opened up a new world to me.

Hi and welcome to S G L, bin's are a great way to start your journey into stargazing, that's how I 

started off, this link if you haven't already found it, is a brilliant site for stargazing with bin's , download 

the monthly newsletter,  http://binocularsky.com/ .

Clear Sky's.

Wide angle binoculars are a great for observing the night sky, I  grab my 8x40's when I just want to look around, even when I'm out with the scope, but the scope will provide the finer details.

Welcome to the SGL.
