Hi there, I am Christian, the person behind the quasar dream. Thanks for your comments! Well the truth is - I am a real enthusiast and I worked for years to afford it. Do you know what dreams are about? I tried this for many many years in my backyard, and then went on and on to build it. Yes, I am an amateur, and an engineer and physicist - out of passion - that's what life is about. And I am lucky to have many friends who helped me on my way.

I did not intend to sound envious in a negative sense or judgemental Christian, I was just smiling

at the idea that a physicist/engineer by proffession, using a state of the art and very costly commercially located/operated device in a great location can be called an "amateur" in the true sense of the word as I have known it over the past 30years of my involvement in astronomy - no malice intended, truly

. I think your outfit is to die for and your achievement is monumental for sure and I applaude you!

What were the specifications of the camera FLI made for you and what were the filters?
