Is this bloke being greedy........

[Doc]

Amazing set up....

[Psychobilly]

What a waste look at all those scopes with EP's on them .... apart from that he's a man after my own heart...

Billy....

[brendant]

My word, I count 8 unless my eyes are deceiving me, what is he doing with them all. Quality setup though, nice scopes and nice mount, I'm green with envy.

Call me stupid (no - don't), but why would you need 8 different refractors?

[Doc]

I could understand it if they were taking photo's of different objects.

[tinvek]

Call me stupid (no - don't), but why would you need 8 different refractors?

maybe he just pretends to be into astronomy and in fact each tube is pointed at a different bedroom window in the local nurses accomadation ?

[Psychobilly]

Call me stupid (no - don't), but why would you need 8 different refractors?

Because he can i suppose

[philsail1]

That's a sight for sore eyes (literally!).

Are you sure he's no relation Billy ? You were my 1st thought

I am only teasing !!

Karlo

Good luck to him, I wish I could !

[brendant]

[Doc]

Could it be that Billy has won the lottery and didn't tell us

[Psychobilly]

Just think what you could do with that lot and registar

Still looking for that pot of gold at the end of the rainbow....all i seem to be finding at the moment is "country pancakes"

Billy...

[The Warthog]

I bet if I asked he wouldn't even give me a little one. Yep, definitely greedy.

[calibos]

Maybe he is cash wealthy but time poor and has forked out the cash to be able to capture R G B Lum Flats Darks all at the same time !!

I'm not an AP'er so correct me if the above is wrong.

[nuttystar]

Imagine alighing that lot!!!!

[Kai]

I would say its a publicity shot personally , maybe from a Trade show / Star Party

[jgs001]

Blimey... Maybe he has ep's as now he's spent that much on scopes, he's saving up for more cameras ?

[Viking]

An excellent grab and (don't) go system. I wonder how long it takes to set up. Clearly not resident in the UK with our skies.

[AndyH]

LOL

I remember seeing this or a similar pic on 'cloudy nights' many moons ago.

A W.O. GT-1 mount though ! They're a collectors item now. Folks have been pestering W.O. forever to bring these out again.

Could do a name the W.O. products comp with that pic !!

Andy

[Sam]

That mount would be working hard!

[barkis]

He is just showing off, but don't we all do that a bit at times.

I know I would if I had all those. Lovely aint they?

Ron.

[Dangerous-Dave]

Call me stupid (no - don't), but why would you need 8 different refractors?

You could buy eight identical CCDs and image with each one at a different narrow-band wavelength at the same time...?

Is this some sort of WO promotion?

[Astro_Baby]

Lame - not one reflector among them

[Tiny]

Maybe he has got 8 eyes on stalks. Seems to like WO.

[tinvek]

hmm spiders have 8 eyes and lots of arms to focus them, perhaps it belongs to spider man
