We go down to Anglesey quite a bit and the night sky is amazing with the reduced light.

Thinking of getting a telescope to try and capture some of the images.

Anybody got one they would recommend?

When it comes to telescopes the more you spend the better you will get but you are then going into the thousands of pounds.

My advice is to contact your local astronomy / stargazing club and go to one of their stargazing evenings and ask for advice.

They tend to be very friendly and will help you out no end and and let you try their kit out.

In my experience a motorised system that automatically sets to the stars are the best but you are talking at least into £1000 plus territory

Shame Ferocious Aardvark left these boards as he was right into astronomy.
