Thank you!!Those are really good pics brother!
Nice!I've a Meade 8" Schmidt-Cassegrain that I enjoy!
The UAE is dusty for sure, but beautiful.Thank you!!
I live in Abu Dhabi, which has terrible light pollution as well as dust in the air. Those were taken from the city but for a really nice pic, I would need to go out into the desert for some really black skies.
Freebirth, they are moons. I expect with a better tripod and more patience, I could tighten them up a bit too.
Very nice! I love when I see something for the first time. Seems like it took me forever to find Jupiter. Did you mean Callisto?
Thats a super cool shot! Love how it picked up the craters and detail around the perimeterAstrophotography is something I have always wanted to do more of, but sadly living in the middle of a big city makes it tough. But here's about what I can do with 600mm focal length on a crop sensor at 1.5x (this shot might have been only 300mm though, can't remember). I would love to get a tracking mount as well.
Possibly a cheap scope or make one myself for my son and I to use in the yard, would be nice to have. I have extra tripods laying around too.
