Neptune and Triton

Here's a shot with the GSTAR-EX at 24X integration and 2500mm fl.

I couldn't see the moon through the eyepiece - the seeing was not up to it, but was stunned how easily the camera picked it up. If it remains clear, i'll try and get some shots over the next few nights and put together an animation.

I hadn't realised there was another moon nearly in shot untill i looked at starry night - I must have a go as 18.5 mag is easily within grasp with this camera!
