I started with AP just before I retired (August of 2018) with my unmodified dslr and unguided basic GEM mount.
My goal was just to enjoy the hobby and capture modest images of the beauty above.
I was amazed by the results (most of them were very crude) and got bitten by the bug!
I image with my ASI533MC on either a 61mm or 102mm APO and HEQ5 mount.
I’m in my later 60’s, married 40 years and have two adult children and one grandson.
I have many other things to spend my money on besides AP, but I have a nice basic setup and enjoy getting out with it very much in my light pollution and tree lined backyard. It’s my astronomy haven!
