Friday night lunar

[SteelRat]

Had another go with the Praktica Dcz. Couple of handheld afocals down the Tal1 and a few hh af quickies with the 3 meg phone. There were lumps of cloud about and some whisps drifting in and out of the way so I didn't stay out long. Had too much fun to stop short of over processing so the results are a bit odd looking. Here's one from each @ mag x54;

Praktica Dcz7

Samsung E590

Nice to get a lil' peep at the moon and a play with the gear.

I took my first photos throught my scope today (well, yesterday as it would be now). I held my little digital camera to the eyepiece to photograph the moon. I'll try to get round to posting the result sometime.

Yes brillinat shots, shows what can be achieve afocal with a digital camera. The most pleasing views I have achieved of the lunar disk so far have been afocal through my TAL 150P - is it the TAL or the camera that gives these excellent results? I suspect the TAL has a large part to play!

The Master does it again. A grand pair of La Lunes, and keeping your standard at the high level Matt.

Good stuff Buddy. :salute:

A couple of crackers

Not sure which I prefer

They both seem to have bought out detail in different parts of the pic...

Stack them?

Cheers

Well done on both, Matt .

The second one (Samsung E590) looks a bit crisper to me.

Reckon the samsung is easier to hold steady Carol

Had a look at a couple of bits, quite like this one;

Was nice to get out. Thanks for the nice words folks.
