Hi
Funny thing we have decided to buy an Observatory in Gingin Western Australia
and some people have a sea change we had a Planetry Change :D as we call it. We are both excited and love the interaction and looks on peoples faces :) when they have seen Saturn or the Moon or the Jewel box just to name some, we have on board with us heaps of Astronomer's with a vast amount of Knowledge :thumbsup:which at times even overwhelms us :confused2: but it will be a great journey for all of us so we are starting up on the 29th of August 2011:welcome: so you will be seeing us a bit when we have questions we may need to ask people on this forum :):thanx:. It will be great getting to know more both about Astronomy and Astrophotography.

That'd be the Gingin Observatory (http://www.ginginobservatory.com/), discussed previously on IIS here: Gingin (WA) Observatory up for sale (http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/showthread.php?t=76906)

Welcome to IIS:welcome: and good luck with your new venture.
