Thanks for the link. Also Alex's link looks interesting. As far as the moon is concerned i tried using a moon filter, this is my second nights shot, the first nights was very very very overexposed. Tuc47 is certainly correct, focusing is a pain in the ..., and very difficult through the 300D viewfinder

I may look at connecting up a lappy to help focus. Still its all fun and gives something to do in Sydney where the sky is so bright. Makes one appreciate the simple pleasure of a dark sky site and just looking .

Thanks everyone for all your help.
