After a year of imaging, posting some work in baut, and lurking in awe of the work I have seen on this forum, it was time to say hello. These are a few images taken through my first year in astrophotography and I welcome advice and criticisim. Thanks to all of you for the inspirational images I have had the pleasure of viewing on this forum.
Kind regards
Matt

Hi Matt
Great to see you posting your images here, I've enjoyed your work on BAUT - it's definitely improving.
Leon (away) at the moment is another ballarat local. I'm sure he'll be chuffed to have another astrophotographer nearby.

Thanks both for the welcome and a special thanks to glenc for catching my first oops. NGC 1955 is now correctly named.
Kind regards

Matt,
Always good to see another DSI II user here - welcome. They are a nice set of images and long exposures - especially unguided - well done.

No I have been a quiet observer on this forum for a while. The 'observatory' is three leveled bricks and a tripod in the back yard.
Cheers
