Here's a quick image of the asteroid Juno and Uranus taken last night. This is a few 15 second exposures taken with a tripod-mounted K100d and 70-300mm lens, and stacked using DSS. The FOV in this cropped image is about 6 degrees. It was nice to see Juno in binoculars from light polluted Brisbane.
EDIT: I've just added an animation that shows the movement of Juno over 2 days. Hope you like it!
Nice work Stephen, to capture these two in the same field. You constantly amaze me with the variety of objects you manage to take photos of – I enjoy looking at them and appreciate your efforts.
I took another set of images last night (after being clouded out on Saturday), which enabled me to put together a little animation showing the movement of the asteroid over 48 hrs. It's attached to the first post in this thread.
I enjoy putting these little animations together! And it still amazes me that it can be done using just a tripod-mounted dSLR.
Fantastic! Well worth the effort Stephen, I really enjoyed the animation! Would be great to have a few more days of movement shown if it wasn't for the clouds.
