"Dylan O'Donnell bought his telescope with a $1,000 tax return'.

This is the caption under about $30K's worth (my guess!) of kit!

Excellent outreach.

Dylan not only takes some of the finest Astroimages/Astroskyscapes he also writes really good Astro/Space articles. I really admire his promotion of Amateur Astronomy. Indeed congrats Dylan.

Story about Dylan O'Donnell on ABC tv news screening this morning. Congratulations on the exposure Dylan. Just reward for great work.

Oh cool heh sry I missed this thread! Thanks for the kind comments all! Yes I'd estimate I'm about 20k in the hole. Eek! The classifieds section on this website doesn't help! I'm still an enthusiastic beginner, I'm glad some of it spills over into outreach :)
