I certainly would.

My afocal images are not all that special, but for what I have, I think they arent too bad.

I am soon to receive a modded Philips SPC900NC and with that and a 5 inch reflector, I am going to have as much fun as I can taking photos of things and seeing how they turn out. If I get some results that I am happy with, I would definitely enter them simply because of the thrill of being able to do so.

I am excited that I can probably achieve results as an amateur astronomer that while they may not rock the world, are pretty cool to get in the grand scheme of things.

Granted, the high tech (and high cost) images of I see DSO's and such are pretty impressive, but I get more of a buzz out of innovation and skill with modest equipment than by making the process clinical and boring and killing all the fun of it.

It might change, it might not, but for now, thats what I get my kicks from.

Thanks for listening.

Chris
