Here's my beloved AP 130GT preparing for a night of astrophotography. Also are several shots of my Van Skyke Turret with it's two sets of eps (Pan, Nagler T6s and Radian plus the 'purist' eps- Brandons and Pentax).

Thanks Michael, it's been about 20 years of buying, selling (alot of charging) and saving to put together. The AP is the only part purchased new.

Just had first light with my ATM 4" f/12(Istar). It went quite well,although I need to tweak the collimation a little.

Very nice looking 4" Glen.

At F/12 it should turn out some good views.
