No reason to keep them from us Jen. That's a great set of images.

[M54]

They look fantastic Jen.
I'm really enjoying looking at all the photos taken by everyone.
It just adds to the excitement of the event.:)
I asked this question on the other thread where you posted your first photo, but I'll repeat it here...Do you have a camera adapter or do you just hold the camera to the eyepiece?

[DavidU]

Good on you Jen:thumbsup:Nicely centered images. YOU GO GIRL !

[firstlight]

Nice one Jen,

The mob of degenerates here will certainly point you in the right direction processing wise. With practice comes skill (or in the old days, a drawer full of dodgey photos and two on the mantlepiece).

PS The "degenerate thing" was a joke...

Wasn't it?;)

[Jen]

:D:D thanks for looking guys, a bit more practice and a better mount and i will be on my way woohooo

Molly yes i used an adapter to connect cam to my scope :thumbsup:

[Dave47tuc]

A big well done Jen :thumbsup:

I know this was your first go and you have been learning and trying to get it right. So super effort in the cold well done mate. :thumbsup:

Everyone's are great:thumbsup:

[Paul Haese]

A collage will pull this together Jen. All the images will come together nicely then.

Good images.

[Jen]

;) Thanks Dave :D:D Yes i froze my butt off to get these pics OMG it was so cold :cold:




:thanx: Paul but i have no idea how to put them into a collage (YET) ;)

[firstlight]

See, now this is the problem. I had to take my jacket off and was wearing a tee-shirt, jeans and thongs... but we had cloud here. Too warm to wear the jacket again until about 10:30.

The moisture probably dropped as snow somewhere before it got to you... Lucky, lucky, lucky you.

[asimov]

Those pictures are a lot better than the one I took with my point-and-shoot camera hand held.

The moon was really bright and dazzled my camera.
