Had a quick scan of the astropix site. That looks a good resource and already noticed the advice to get a 'scope to suit what you want to photograph (e.g planets or nebula)

They do regular stargazing/photography camps there, looking at going to do some Milky Way shots next year. |

Thanks for the great advice FA (I know it was directed at another user, but I, as a complete newbie, found it very useful). After looking at the sites mentioned, plus a bit of other research, I bought a SkyWatcher Evo 90mm with an AZ3 mount on Friday. Took it out last night and was absolutely amazed by what I could see - I must have spent at least 2 hours just following Jupiter around the sky. Completely hooked already.....cheers again.

Excellent.
Jupiter is superb just now, and one way to waste a bunch of time is viewing its moons. For which have a looky here:
