Hi Guys,

This is my First shot using my ED80 and my 300D, only 30 seconds long but still quite proud of it.

Hey nice shot Peter.

Go for it, you've got a nice combination of scope and camera.

What object is it?

[edit] on 2nd look, it looks a bit like M17 the swan. Is it?

Well done Peter.

Its a bit of a shock to the system that first shots isn't it....I cant believe what you can get out of a DSLR with just 30 seconds.

Your hooked now and good luck for future pics.

Nice effort Peter.... Hey mike, maybe we could have a monthly 30 second exposure challenge....

Loupy31 (Peter) · #12 11-09-2005, 06:04 PM

The reason for only a 30 sec. exposure, was my laptop ran out of power so in turn I couldnt use the software to make a longer exposure.

A 30 sec. challenge I think would be a great idea.
