Hi,

Looks really nice. Thanks for posting photos, Richard!
You mean my previous Sky-Watcher 6" Newtonian... no wonder it look so familiar.. ha ha ha :mrgreen: Glad to know that it's still out there collecting photons.

Have a nice day.

I missed the 1st day (May 1st) because we were at Mersing, but we came back the next evening and I decided to drive over directly from the Causeway to Vivocity to participate in the sidewalk astronomy event.

Here are some 'poor' shots of the 2nd day sidewalk astronomy event taken through my phone camera:

Hi,
Base on the first photo.. it's doesn't look like my previous Sky-Watcher 6" Newtonian leh... it's seem too long to be a 6" F5 Newtonian... more like a Sky-Watcher 8" F5 Newtonian.

Have a nice day.
