David Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Shouts to Carole for tipping me the wink that there was a new forum and I can’t believe I was able to have David as my user name! I have spent a really enjoyable 10 years learning as much as possible not just about astrophotography but also about what I am imaging and it never gets old. Having built an observatory in Sydney I now have another one I am working on in the Barrington Tops which has fantastic dark skies (25 minutes away from the nearest streetlight at 90 kms per hour) and where I spent most of last year hiding out. Right now I am looking for ways to give back and share either through science based imaging projects or just contributing back to the forums that have taught me so much over the years. I love reading and right now on my kindle I am on “The Last Stargazers” by Emily Levesque which is a fascinating account of an astronomer working at some of the huge telescopes in Hawaii, Chile and the US. Looking forward to contributing on this forum. David (AussieDave as was) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you still use the SHOB? Carole I am indeed. Was imaging NGC6164/5 last night in Oii and will do some more tonight. Great spot for NB but also good for globular and open clusters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
