A short introduction
« on: 2012 April 15 09:22:51 »
Hi all.

I felt before I started posting/relying, I should make some sort of introduction of myself. Thought this was the best place to do so.

My name is Lonnie (obviously) and I am from Canada. I'm almost completely new to astrophotography, about 3 months experience. My main equipment used is a 9.25" Edge-HD on a CGEM-DX mount, 80mm Skywatcher Equinox and a Edmund's Clear Glass modified Canon 550D (T2i). I'm currently using PixInSight trial version and quite frankly couldn't be more happy with it. It does have a bit of a learning curve but all the tutorials have made it MUCH easier for me, thanks for that!

Anyway, I would like to say hello to all the other members on here.

Hi Lonnie,

Welcome to PI World. I'm a fellow Canuck, although living in Oregon now. I think you will find the whole PI experience very satisfying, and that it will greatly improve your astro image processing as you gain experience.

Plus, think of all the money you'll save by not having to buy all those other add-on packages!

Yours,

Sean

We have the whole spectrum here, from newbies to those with multiple APODs to their credit. But most of all there is much to learn here. Enjoy the journey ...
