first photograph of the moon

[CH]

Or anything astronomical come to think of it !

This is what the moon looks like in Turkey tonight, I'm just getting used to operating the scope (Meade 105).

I haven't fixed up the camera holder yet, this was taken holding a camera up to the lens and trying not to move

Tricky, I find holding my breath helps, but I wouldn't advise... Great start there CH, keep em' coming

[CH]

Ok here is take 2 and yes I was holding my breath and a little less exposure.

Saturn is around now I'll give that a go

[Caz]

That is fantastic image CH!!! 8) Looks like holding breath and adjusting exposure did the trick!

I hope you don't mind but I've had a quick play...

How exactly did you do that ? also did you realise that you've inverted the image into a position different to how it appears here ?

Adobe photoshop, editting software? I didn't have to do much to it tbh, its a super image CH. 8) All I had to do was rotate the image and use whats known as 'Greyscale' does exactly what it says on the tin, turns it grey. Sharpend it a little, hey presto, sorted...

Oops, have I turned it the wrong way... again

[Jamie]

No Caz its the right way round (as we on earth look at it)
