All these taken over two nights. The moon was taken with my 10" f/5.6 Discovery through a 24mm Panoptic. Saturn was with the same scope through a 6.7mm Meade 5000 UWA. Saturn only represents a single shot, no stacking yet. -------------------- 10" F/5.5 Astrosky SkyCommander DSCs A loving dog, Buddha, who tolerates my hobbies Post Extras:       Brian Carter Post Laureate Reged: 11/24/04 Posts: 3115 Loc: Atlanta, GA Re: First try at astrophotography [Re: Brian Carter]       #813111 - 02/06/06 09:58 PM Attachment (36 downloads) Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   moon2 -------------------- 10" F/5.5 Astrosky SkyCommander DSCs A loving dog, Buddha, who tolerates my hobbies Post Extras:       Brian Carter Post Laureate Reged: 11/24/04 Posts: 3115 Loc: Atlanta, GA Re: First try at astrophotography [Re: Brian Carter]       #813112 - 02/06/06 09:59 PM Attachment (33 downloads) Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   moon3 -------------------- 10" F/5.5 Astrosky SkyCommander DSCs A loving dog, Buddha, who tolerates my hobbies Post Extras:       Brian Carter Post Laureate Reged: 11/24/04 Posts: 3115 Loc: Atlanta, GA Re: First try at astrophotography [Re: Brian Carter]       #813113 - 02/06/06 09:59 PM Attachment (47 downloads) Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   saturn -------------------- 10" F/5.5 Astrosky SkyCommander DSCs A loving dog, Buddha, who tolerates my hobbies Edited by Brian Carter (02/06/06 10:02 PM) Post Extras:       Brian Carter Post Laureate Reged: 11/24/04 Posts: 3115 Loc: Atlanta, GA Re: First try at astrophotography [Re: Brian Carter]       #813118 - 02/06/06 10:00 PM Attachment (41 downloads) Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   one more saturn -------------------- 10" F/5.5 Astrosky SkyCommander DSCs A loving dog, Buddha, who tolerates my hobbies Post Extras:       thelittleman Vendor (Peter's Actions) Reged: 05/21/05 Posts: 4079 Loc: Hampshire, UK Re: First try at astrophotography [Re: Brian Carter]       #813730 - 02/07/06 10:49 AM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   First try?!

Try a lite Gaussian blur to soften effects of processing. Saturn turned out pretty good too... Like Peter said, another 1000 frames and you are good to go;-) Post Extras:       Pages: 1
