Hi all - Derby based here, using Skywatcher 200PDS with 183MM-Pro on NEQ6. Been into astrophotography since Feb 2020 (only just in the beforetimes) and learning all the time. My Instagram page is @dobberastro if you wanted to take a look!

 

cheers

Hi there Bob,

 

Welcome to EMS 😀

Not sure if i've ever met you at Derby & District astro society meets , although its been over 5 years since i was a regular there.

I was quite active there from 2006-2016, but now i just go to the odd meeting.

 

Your Insta page is very impressive ; you've taken some super images on a pretty short time frame. Hats off.

It just shows what can be achieved under Derby skys !! I'm Darley Abbey based and i'm Bortle 7 here.

 

I've been mostly visual in my time on here, but really want to improve my own astrophotography.

I've even decided to trade one of my current scopes for a new equatorial mount which is hopefully coming next week.

Then the fun can really begin 😀

 

Hope to meet you sometime : we have ad-hoc meets up at Alderwasley, and at Wymeswold, but they are usually fairly low key.

Enjoy your stay on here : we have some pretty good imagers here so you are already in good company.

 

Cheers Rob.

Very warm welcome Bob. You’ll find we are a friendly and helpful bunch. Any questions just ask.

 

Hope to meet you at one of the dark sky sites. As noted above, they are fairly low key.
