Jen's first dab @ Partial Lunar Eclipse Pics

[Jen]

Hey guys i wasnt going to post my lunar pics on here as you are all proberly sick of looking at them all by now LOL
There is a lot of great ones to look at
But i thought bugger it im jumping on the Eclipse bandwagon too
Being my first go at this i was pretty excited at how they turned out

From start to finish in between clouds here they are

Taken with a Canon 500D through my 6 inch Newt
ISO-400
Exposure times vary from 1/4000sec to 1/1000sec (as i had no idea what i was really doing)
No cropping or editing (as i wouldn't know how to do that yet)
First pic taken @ 8:45pm last pic taken @ 12:30am

No reason to keep them from us Jen. That's a great set of images.

[M54 (Molly)]

They look fantastic Jen.
I'm really enjoying looking at all the photos taken by everyone.
It just adds to the excitement of the event.
I asked this question on the other thread where you posted your first photo, but I'll repeat it here...Do you have a camera adapter or do you just hold the camera to the eyepiece?

[DavidU (Dave)]

Good on you JenNicely centered images. YOU GO GIRL !

[firstlight (Tony)]

Nice one Jen,

The mob of degenerates here will certainly point you in the right direction processing wise. With practice comes skill (or in the old days, a drawer full of dodgey photos and two on the mantlepiece).

PS The "degenerate thing" was a joke...

Wasn't it?

[Jen]

thanks for looking guys, a bit more practice and a better mount and i will be on my way woohooo

Molly yes i used an adapter to connect cam to my scope

A big well done Jen

I know this was your first go and you have been learning and trying to get it right. So super effort in the cold well done mate.

Everyone's are great

[Paul Haese]

A collage will pull this together Jen. All the images will come together nicely then.

Good images.

Good images.

Paul but i have no idea how to put them into a collage (YET)

[firstlight (Tony)]

See, now this is the problem. I had to take my jacket off and was wearing a tee-shirt, jeans and thongs... but we had cloud here. Too warm to wear the jacket again until about 10:30.

The moisture probably dropped as snow somewhere before it got to you... Lucky, lucky, lucky you.
