Hi,
Well I'm back again for a bit - work and family seem to be the biggest co-conspirators in stopping me from enjoying stargazing.
However, I'm making every effort to view on the cool crisp nights that we are now beginning to experience once again.
Anyway, I have a good quality DSLR (Nikon D60 - well I think that it is good quality) with a good quality tripod and remote shutter release. I do have a telescope but do not have the time to get it out to use (Dobsonian Mounted and probably in need to proper alignment too).
I am wondering how can I take a good photo of the nights sky from my location and pickup the wonderful Milky Way? I've seen some photographs in the Australian Sky and Space magazine where the photo has not been aided by a telescope or Equitorial mounted camera ...
Any suggestions on where I should start? What setting should I set for (eg. speed / ISO setting / bulb)?
Thanks!
Rob
