Testing camera mount
Hi all,
I've recently set in motion some plans to make my own equatorial mount for photography, but being very impatient I couldn't wait to for parts & time to come together for this. So I knocked together some spare parts from recently dissected printers & scanners to create a tracking mount for my camera!
The first shot was out in the country at my parent's house testing the mount for the first time on the southern cross through intermittent clouds. Its 15x30sec exposures.
The second shot is of M7 & the butterfly cluster from my balcony in Melbourne after a more careful polar alignment. 20x30sec exposures.
I'm still learning a lot about taking and processing the photos
