I was capturing a few "redneck" pictures the other night with the 12".

The shadows of the mountains, were just stunning. It just set off how high they really are.

But redneck as it get's, it was just with a low end webcam quickly shuffled into the focuser. Dam it worked better than I expected.
See if I can get a pic up.

Edit: First Pic was a few days ago, with the webcam with no EP, just stuck in the focuser. 2nd pic is a 4mp camera just up against the EP.
It was better than I expected from a 4 year old webcam. And much better than I expected through the EP.
Now to just get a better camera, tracking motors (or invent it) and some experience in photo shooting.
Ahhh, here I thought the xmas pressie was cheap...LOL!
