I had a fantastic time last weekend with my telescope. I decided to have an imaging party, and try to get as much as I possibly could over Saturday night and Sunday morning. Took me ages to finish processing, and I'm only posting it now cause I've had a long week of assignments and homework.
All images were taken with my 10" Dobsonian with no tracking. As always, I used my home made camera bracket with video camera to capture with 32mm eyepiece and 2X barlow.
I started on Saturday night with Mars, which was kinda low at the time, and I had to use about 30X zoom on the camera. Hence its quite pixelated =P Then I moved onto Rigel and the Orion nebula (I know neither are within the solar system, but they were just quickies
). Then Saturn, and I forgot to get its moons on camera. I went to bed and got up at around 4:45am to get Venus, Jupiter, Jupiters moons and our moon.
I hope the image isn't too bad quality. I had to decrease the quality a bit in photoshop to get it to fit in the attchment.
