Hi folks , its been too long since I tried this.

Here's the best 1 shot snaps out of about 20

Using a borrowed Nikon D70

Well it's recognisable, and that's a start.
You'll have better success with a webcam - are you considering getting one?

Good luck!

Thats what I thought, it is recognizable , just

I dont a webcam or an easy means of capturing from a one.
I'm considering a Canon EOS1000D and later on a half decent mount like an EQ6 or better for tracking.

Not bad at all Torr, well done.

A webcam will give you much better results but you've got to start somewhere.

Keep at it.
