OXO Posted October 13, 2006 Author Share Posted October 13, 2006 I was too excited Here is two images one just using a 2x barlow and the other using 2x 2xbarlows (Really pushing the limits of the Scope here), it was really hard to get focussed and so forth but i think i pulled it off and iam very happy with the results.More later.James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caz Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Have you got the franchise on the moon or something, you never fail to get a snap of it or two.... The moon nor stars graced my patch of sky last night.... James, the first one does it for me, its a corker... 8) Caz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OXO Posted October 13, 2006 Author Share Posted October 13, 2006 Thanks Phil/Caz,Got another 10 images to process yet ...Past two night it's been awful until the Moon risers then it clears at 11ish and things improve :shock:.Using two Barlows is difficult in poor seeing but ya gotta give it a go, it's wonderful to watch on the laptop the moments when seeing gets better pretty much like being in a Luna module 8)One thing i failed to mention was i ended up on the floor with the EQ6 mount on top of me whilst packing away (ouch) and waking up a few people with screams of laughter (DOH!)Post some more pics in bit.James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
