No barlow, through the back of the scope with a diagonal.

Although I do know that I really need to go out to the country or away from buildings to get some clearer pics, I still think I can do better.

Image away from the laminar flow of heat rushing up the side of the building. Go for it!

Depending on the cloud coverage I may venture out tonight. It's a bit of a drive, so I'm debating it.

For this one I utilized the internal barlow and a short extension tube. Again, picture taken from out my window.

Isn't it time you start a new thread to post your imaging results? Currently, there is not much relevance between the title of this thread and the essence of the current posts. Both your fine images and the Q 50th deserve a proper space for exposure IMHO Post Extras:       TerryWood sage Reged: 03/15/12 Loc: USA Re: Making progress [Re: Erik Bakker]       #5423668 - 09/16/12 12:21 PM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   Thanks again! Yep, you must've read my mind. I agree, I should start another thread where folks can post their Questar pics and offer advice. I know I could certainly use it! Again, thank you all for the encouragement. V/R Terry Post Extras:       Pages: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | (show all)
