hey guys and girls(from darwin)

Hey everyone, Andrew here
love astronomy stars and the universe.... and self confessed nerd ahah
i recently have reignited a passion for astronomy, i guess because i have the means to do so now being 25,
so i started out reading about astrophotography on the net and thought i have a decent entry level dslr and a nice range of lenses id give it a crack, and from that first night i was hooked.
im fairly new to it, less than 6 months.
i was lucky enough to get a scope for my birthday from my misses and got given a skywatcher 6inch dob ill throw up a few pics in the photo section
thanks guys.
stay awesome,
Andrew.

Welcome to the fold
It possibly won't be long until you start getting the feeling that your wallet is too big and your telescope is too small!
