Hi

Hi I'm Jason,

Have been reading the threads here and there. I have been given a Celestron 4" Nexstar as a birthday gift. Tried photographing the Moon the other night and the image was "not good" compared to what I saw.

I am looking for an idiots guide to Astrophotography was considering getting http://www.astropix.com/GADC/TOC.HTM. Would appreciate any advice.

I think I have Lens envy. I would like to photograph; planets, moon, DSOs and may be one day The sun (with appropriate filters/protection).

My first ever nebula image was the Horse head nebula in a skylight like dome on a Pan Am 747 30 odd years ago, the colours were beautiful.

Well looks like I have found another expensive photography related hobby.

Cheers

Jason
