Hi from Leicester UK

[RobDoyle]

I have just signed up and I wanted to say hello. I am Rob from Leicester UK, and I am a complete beginner to Stargazing and Astrophotography. 

I am hoping to pick up some tips here to help me get started. I do have some kit, which is a Celestron Astromaster 130md and a Nikon D5100. I have the T adapter to connect my camera to the scope and a barlow x2.

I know I have a lot to learn but I saw many great photos on here that got me hooked ?
