Great forum

Throwing out a big hello from southern Wisconsin, USA. You have a wonderful forum/resource here.

I recently retired and am now getting back into my childhood hobby of astronomy. I am also attempting astrophotography for the first time. Yes, I am a patient man...

Again, greetings to all....

Bruce
