Greetings!

Hi everyone,

I'm Dan. I'm new here. I'm also new to astronomy, though I've loved the idea of it since I was a primary schooler (the thick end of two decades ago). It's only recently that I realised that astronomy was a thing I could actually do now that I am a grown up.

So I got me a little 70mm refractor a few weeks ago (and have since been given a 76mm reflector as well) in order to learn the sky. When I get a bit richer I'll invest in a bigger 'scope. We all gotta start somewhere though, right?

Anyway, I'm in Brisbane and I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions for darker skies to take my scope (and camera - I've been a photography nerd for a long time) near (<1.5 hours drive) here.

-Dan
