Looking forward to meeting everyone in a couple of weeks. Never been to one of these weekends but they sound great.
I am a bit of a newbie and have just been trying to teach myself astronomy this past year with some success and failure. I own a basic 6 inch dob but looking at upgrading soon so will be good to see a few different scopes in action to help me work out what I want/need. Unfortunately as i am coming straight from work and my car is full of baby seats so i wont be able to bring my scope on the weekend. I will be bringing my binoculars and tripod but if anyone can let me have a few moments on the end of their eyepiece it would be appreciated.
Hopefully my new SLR arrives also before that weekend so i will get a chance to do some nightscapes and astrophotography. Again if anyone wants to give me a couple of photography pointers I would be happy for any advice.
I'm a chef so happy to bribe people with food for some mentoring!!
Let's hope we have some clear skies and a fun weekend!!
