It almost looks like an alien planet. I've learned that you can take better advantage of the eyepiece field of view by using a tripod mount to hold the camera back from the eyepiece. The porthole effect is kinda interesting though. -------------------- Matt Apogee 50mm BB scope ETX-60 BB Meade 70-az 5" DIY Newt (wip) C6-N on CG-4 GEM Gallery Post Extras:       sang33ta scholastic sledgehammer Reged: 07/08/08 Posts: 767 Loc: UK Re: Newbie Corner - Photo Comments.

I see 4 comments in response to 10 pages of pictures.
