As i said I am new to this but I am excited to see the rings around Saturn and some nice detail in the moon etc. I am looking forward to getting away one weekend and having a good play with the telescope. It is overwhelming the amount I need to learn but I guess it will come in time. I have also purchased a t adapter so i can take some snaps with my 450d. I have included a pic i took tonight of the moon its my first picture so im pretty happy with it. looking forward to participating in the future. Justin

Hi Justin,

What area areyou located in?
There are plenty of groups meeting aroung the contry that have regular Dark Sky outings.
You will be most welcome at any.
And this hobby is even better when you can share it with like minded friends.
