    I play with plants and soil and sometimes it's successful

  • @LunarSea That's good news, mine are 12x so it looks as though I'm going to be able to see Jupiter and the rings of Saturn! I haven't had mine all that long so they haven't had a whole heap of use but I'll definitely be using them more now!

    Wow!!!!  Thanks for that Paul. Way over my head (literally) but those nebulae images are absolutely awesome. And from Bristol as well! 

    I'm going to show this to my brother-in-law. He's quite serious about astrophotography and he's got a bob or two.

    Personally I think these images rival those of the best observatories in the world .
    How this guy does this is incredible ; imagery of objects on a scale that would be beyond most peoples comprehension .
    Pleased you appreciate the website .

    @LunarSea.  Maybe you could use this site to enhance your photos,  I doubt it’s free though!

    Thanks Lyn. Seems to be free but I'm afraid my interest in astrophotography is only a passing one. Heck - this guy goes to considerably more post-production effort than I ever did when I was a serious wildlife photographer. Far too lazy nowadays  :)
