Thankyou IceInSpace :)

[Darren (Darren Miller)]

Hello,
I'd just like to say an Overdue THANKYOU to everyone on Ice In Space with this photo - Me with my Skywatcher HEQ5 Pro Mount on Homemade Pier, Long Perng 80mm F/6 Refractor, Orion Star Shoot Autoguider ( I Got It Today!) and other Accessories, And of course, Mighty Orion in the background.
Thankyou to everyone who has offered advice/help/tips!
I have come a long way thanks to this forum, and will go much further because of it!
Some of you may remember the days when I used to drag a FULL desktop PC out to image with a Logitech webcam!
Again, Thankyou my friends

Great photo Darren & well done/congratulations on your set up.
There's something of greatness isn't it to have a photo taken standing in front of the great hunter himself! Well I feel that way anyway!

I'm with you there- such a great bunch of people on here. I've learned so much myself and continue to do so- so much to see up there - so many different fields within astrononomy - I think one will always feel like a beginner, but how great is that as we're always able to learn something and be continually fascinated.
