A Productive Night

by , under Misc

I had a great session Friday Febuary 6th 2009. It started out with numerous shots of m42 (my novice obsession). Later in the night I cycled thru several objects in the goto tour. All of the pictures with the exception of M42 are single shots. The lunar and Saturn shot are short exposures < 1 sec with relatively low ISO. The deep space shots are 30 second exposures @ 800 ISO. All shots were taken with a Canon 20Da DSLR camera attached to a CPC1100 fork mounted scope. No guiding is taking place, the 3 star align GOTO tracking is enabled.

Random Star Cluster -- not sure which one.
