Hi all,
Well, like alot of other people here, I developed a real interest in the sky as a kid of about 10 years old. I had a set of binoculars and eventually my parents bought me a basic tasco reflecter and I would spend many hours with it set up on our carport roof just looking at anything and everything! As a teenager I got sidetracked and packed away the scope and now, 15ish years later am keen to get back into it.
The night sky just blows me away, like I'm sure it does for most people here!
I'm trying to learn a bit more about telescopes so that I can get something a little better than the old tasco. Eventually I would like to try some photograhy too, but I see I have a lot to learn first.
I'd love to get together with other people here in Melbourne to learn as much as I can, as I don't really now anyone else into astronomy
Regards, Karen.
