First attempt at AP tonight...

[wulliam]

I haven't posted for quite a while but my 7yr old son and I enjoyed Jupiter again tonight - he saw the banding clearly for the first time and is very excited.

After he headed off to bed I set up my Canon 1000D with new 2x Barlow from FLO (thanks!) and had my first go. There was lots of star trailing and suchlike which I expected, but I had a shot at the moon as well and have attached a slightly edited version of one of the better shots.

If I wasn't hooked before then I am now!

Regards,

William

Do you have a remote release for your camera, if not can use the timer function.

Thanks! I do have a remote release and used it for this...now I'm going to try stacking a few images for the first time - see what happens!
