Looks good Sonia, well done. Keep the images coming

Hi Sonia

Very nice image of the crescent Moon - well done. Was that captured through the Dob, or in the baby Meade and what camera did you use?

Cheers

Hi Dennis
It was captured through the dob and using a digital camera handheld to the eyepiece.

A very impressive feat Sonia - no drive on the Dob and a handheld exposure - wow!

Just imagine what you could achieve with a driven mount and the camera physically attached to the 'scope.

Cheers

Dennis
