Welcome to my site.  I live in the remote Orkney Islands and am a keen amateur astronomer.  I've been observing the night sky one way or another since I was a small child and was given my first basic telescope at the age of 11.  Some forty odd years on the magic hasn't faded and I'm not the proud owner of several telescopes and a small fisherman's cottage in a reasonably dark area.

The intention of this site is to share some of the things that I view with you and to pass on some of the knowledge and experience I've gained over the years.  It's a work in progress and hopefully always will be.
