First Photo's for a While

Hi Guys,

Haven't had much of a chance to take any photo's for a few weeks due to the unpredictable weather, annoying neighbours with 2000W floodlights shining directly into our back yard and a few equipment issues, but managed to get a few on Wednesday night.

I've got a new lens (85MM 1.8f, with Infinity setting), now so my starshoots are getting a lot clearer.

Here's one of my favourite part of the sky, 8 (2 Darks) captures stacked using DSS, and enhanced a bit in PSP. Now that I know I can do this part of the sky a bit earlier in the evening, I'll be concentrating on M8 and M20 with my CCD to get some impressive shots I think.

Enjoy

Jason

Due to technical difficulties (and annoying neighbours), I couldn't get any CCD shots of M8 and M20 tonight. I've started another post with the photo's I did manage to get tonight though.
