Popping in

[tompato]

Hi all, just popping in to say "Hi 👋" before I start throwing questions around like they're going out of fashion!

I'm in my early 30's, from the East of England and by day I'm a web developer.

I've been into astronomy for a while now, originally just with an ex-display basic grab and go setup with a 6inch Newtonian and then I fancied going into astrophotography with a bigger/heavier setup that I traded for but I think I've come to realise that I don't have the time or expertise for it so I think I'll be asking a few questions on how to return back to a more simple setup.

Welcome to SGL, thanks for joining us 😊

 

A 6" newt is a nice scope, I started with a 3"

I don't do anything AP, but many here do.

There are no dumb questions, so feel free to ask anything

Welcome, ask away questions about the hobby and have fun. AP can be very frustrating.
