Thanks Frank,
The pictures I have taken so far have been taken in not the best of conditions. Mainly being a couple of kilometers away from the bright city lights...... (too many people forgetting to turn off the lights in the city when they leave work ) and also the red dust storms did not help.

I also took these pictures by simply pointing a digital camera I was holding down the lense of the telescope which was not ideal as I had to contend with hand and telescope movement as well.

Since these pictures were taken I have now added a camera mount to the telescope which will hopefully produce better pictures. Now I just have to wait for the weather to improve so I can try the camera mount out.
