Hi All

After imaging the Comet last night the night was still clear and i thought i would have a go at the LMC again

Didn't come out to bad i think

The image consists of 8 frames @ 2,00 Min's, 135mm F/2.0L Lens on Canon 5D, tracked, on EQ5 Mount, and 72mm Hutech LPR Filter.
Combined in Image Plus. and touched up in PS2

Cheers Leon :thumbsup:

Thanks Doug, what's happening, have you tried the 28mm yet.

Just got back from the Comet run, another fifty images, thank God for digital, if I didn't have that i'd need a Kodak Factory.

Cheers Leon :thumbsup:

Hi leon,
Yeah - just fired off a few test shots using the 28mm Pentax a few nights ago.
Looks like the boy has a bright future down here in SA!
Cheers

Nice one Leon & nicely framed too.
Gee that 135mm F/2.0 L looks/sounds/performs like an awesome lens.

Hi Leon, thats a great looking image that you have captured, the stars are very resolved and theres lots of detail, the colours are very natural as well.

A great job in my books

Cheers
