H I'm Giorgio, living in Stavanger Norway
I like fiddling with optics, then once a setup is more or less working, I get bored and move to a new setup.
Current hype is on 3D-printed microscope accessories, to pimp up my ancient Swift microscope.
I would happily help anybody in need of weird adapters, rings and knobs.
Previous hypes: macro of insects; eyepieces; smartphone adapters;
I often scribble down arrogant I-know-everything posts (without reading the previous posts...), please be patient.
Hello from Norway
Re: Hello from Norway
A number of years ago I rented a "minivan" (ended up being a small delivery van -- I booked it through avis.no using Google translate) and a bed-and-breakfast in Rosendal for several days and drove around the area doing some day hikes. Amazing scenery. I never quite made it all the way down to Stavanger but did drive around on the peninsula near Haugesund one day, just across the water.
Re: Hello from Norway
Yes, the scenery is great! and minivan/camper is the best way to get around.
It's not so good for astronomy though, night light in the summer and continuous rain in the winter...
