Hi there,

New to photography, bought my first camera at the age of 47!

Bought it to try my hand at astrophotography but as it seems to be permanently cloudy thought I should learn how to use it in daylight!

Welcome to TP Michael. There's a number of excellent astrophotographers on here so plenty for you to see

I must admit I'm quite nervous about posting anything, I really am an absolute beginner with a camera.

Hi Michael - welcome - beginner here too

Hi Michael and welcome to TP - I tend to call myself an astrophotographer these days, sadly the normal daytime camera's haven't seen the light of day for over 2 years. If you have any astro questions and I can help then drop me a line - There's a few of us on here, but it's quite a specialist area.

Look forward to seeing you around
