Hey people!
Been a member of this site for a while now so i figured I'd make myself known
My first ever scope was the tiny desktop 76mm Dob. I recently purchased my first serious scope, a SW 8" Dob, just a few weeks ago and had the chance to head down to some nice dark skies in the SW of WA for my gf had never seen the Milky Way as she was from ye old London town. Unfortunately the bright Moon ruined that for her, but i still managed to see Orions nebulae, and the Pleiades for the first time
Even managed to see M79 which was almost directly above me, although it killed my neck trying to line it up in the finder!
Anyways thanks for reading, and i look forward to many more sleepless nights ahead.
Chris
