They're beautiful. I think I liked the Orion nebula enough to make it a wallpaper :)
What sort of a telescope do you have? How much did it cost? And how do you escape the city lights?
:thumb:
Very Good!
Whats next?
What kind of scope you got?
And, to mendhak, the best way is to retreat to a mountain or a hill outside the city, and after midnight, when the temperature variation settles.
A picture of the starship Enterprise maybe? :DQuote:

Cool thanks everyone
its a SC meade LXD 75 with a canon G3 digital camera. The telescope has autoguiding which helps for the nebula pics. The exposure is a 15 second one on the orion nebula and a 200th of a second (I think) on the Saturn pics.
I live in a village but light polution is still an issue, Hopefully my new stuff will arrive soon (waiting for ages). Its a Light reduction filter ,focal reducer and barlow, ill post my results when and if I ever get any.
Anyone else got a scope?
Lol sorry about the website design it took me two hours to make. Could you guess :lol:
You have software which can tell you exact positions of stars, planets etc. from your location at any given time.Quote:

I'm thinking of buying an Orion AstoView 6, but just for observation. I am not very interested in astrophotography.Quote:

added to which it was in the Orion constellation :lol:

The Wraith wouldn't like that very much. :DQuote:

Very nice man.
Man I want a Meade. They make some nice Cassagrains.
My next target will probably be Saturn again, try and get more contrast
Very nice. I am jealous, I have on occasions attached my dads 35mm SLR to my scope, but taking anything dimmer than the moon is a disaster. I guess a motor is a must when you have a long exposure.
Looking at a picture of a nebula and lokoing at it with the naked eye is quite different. When viewed through the telescope the nebula appears as a haze. But take a picture and you got all the beautiful colours. Stunning :D
I think you should aim high - get some pics of dark matter :DQuote:
