The chase with bigger scopes was fun but I notice that with Binoculars I am ready at a moments notice and my time spent at the eyepieces has risen dramatically. The wfov and 3-d affect along with trying to stay current with all of the advances in astronomy(and understand) make this viewing very relaxing and oh so beautiful.
