I just use my smartphone camera as I don't have the brains to work out the DSLR that my wife uses, so obviously the quality of my actual images won't be great but hopefully won't get laughed out of town.

As for "when am I ready?" You'll never be ready. It works in reverse, you become ready by doing it. - pmbomb
@thecolourbox nobody’s worried if you’re a serious photographer, it’s just a bit of fun.

Last time I got out with clear conditions to do astro was to photo that comet a few years back, oppertunities dont come around all that much.
I cant photo it though, skies here are dark but north from me is some large towns which drown out the sky.
I love astrophotography but like you don't get the opportunity to very often and when I do get away from the light population it's cloudy
(not the best photo ever, but best in mind that I'm in South Essex!!)
EDIT: meant to say - you get much better comet photos than I managed when it was visible!
We had thin clouds here which may explain why I didn't see much. Oh well
Amazing what can happen when the light is just right! In this case, I was inside the aviary with a 12-40mm lens, and the bright afternoon sun came straight through to the branch. I waited there for a minute to see if a bird would land there and two did!
Got to second that, lovely shot.
