First pics

Clear skies in Melbourne last night - my first astrophotograph attempt (and without polar alignment).

You are doomed now you have taken your first picture. Very good for a first attempt?

Nice one Andy,

It sure is exciting when you start imaging.

It soon turns to an addiction and a lot of cursing the clouds saying why now and why me...hehehe

Andy,
I'm affraid I have good news and bad news for you:
the good news is : that's a pretty good first image all of us would have been proud to have taken as a first go
the bad news is: you're going to become addicted to astrophotography...and there's no cure...just keep coming back to this support group and
keep 'em coming!
frank

Another lost soul, lost to the addiction of imaging, well done for a first attempt, it will only get better, and more enjoyable

Cheers leon
