Hi All,

I finally decided to register. I have been looking at the sky, night sky that is, for years trying to figure out how those ancient observers came up with all those constellations. I sort of can see a few of the major ones, like Scorpio and the Southern Cross.

In recent times, my wife bought a 130 mm celestron astromaster scope. Yeah, it has the mechanical one with German Equatorial Mount which I have been trying to adjust and understand - not.

I also attempted a bit of astrophotography with my Canon 5D mk II. Had mixed results with this. I hope to learn more.
