And welcome. Welcome to 'UnderSouthWest Skies'. Thanks for stopping by. I hope you find the experience worthwhile. This blog post has been written from my own 'beginner perspective' after doing lots of reading on the topic below.  In getting my head around it all, I may have got odd bits slightly wrong; but, like you, I am on a leaning journey, so please forgive any unintentional errors.  Meanwhile, clear skies to you. Take care and thanks for visiting   Steve aka PlymouthAstroBoy 

This post is just a summary page of where you can find my various 'beginners guides to.....' type posts. I wrote all these for those people who are coming new to astronomy and astrophotography. I remember being completely overwhelmed when I first started doing my research and learning journey. So these posts have been written by me - an absolute beginner - for you - another beginner. Hope they help! I will update the page regularly.
