Hello everyone,

I'm a travel photographer based in Somerset and after a life time of being fascinated by the night sky, have finally bought a telescope to get a closer look and (hopefully) start imaging very soon.

Last night was my first observing sess, just swinging the scope around while swopping eps and generally getting the feel of the thing. Absolutely amazing. Mars was my first target, then the Pleiades and I think I saw the Orion Nebula. Next time I'll attempt to polar align the mount and try the GoTo thingy.

Visiting this site over the last month or so has really helped to get me started so thanks very much guys.

Regards,

Jon

Thanks for the welcome!

I've got a Skywatcher MN 190, EQ6 PRO and various eps.

It was a very tough decision between the 190 and a APO refractor for my first scope, however, an APO will follow in due course. As Steve at FLO told me - no one just has one!

Cheers,

Jon
