Omega, keyhole and ghost of jupiter.

OK so I am new to astronomy and astrophotography (wife bought me a scope for Christmas)
I have found that the mount that came with the celestron was totally a waste of time. So bought an EQ6 pro.....ahh much better......so without further ado....my first pics with said mount, 8'' SCT prime focus with 40D.

I havent tried a drift align yet so limited to around 30 sec exposures.
Taken in my back yard...not dark and no filters.
hope u like my first attempts.

Marty
