Title: A couple from tonight Post by: rjgjr on October 27, 2010, 08:01:59 am Took advantage of a break between storms and before the Moon could blot everything out to take a few shots of a clear sky. The first is a not so centered shot of Cassiopeia and the Resurs 1-4 Rocket passing throught it. The second is the Summer Triangle setting over "my trees".
50 mm 68 sec f/4 800 ISO mounted piggyback on a clock-driven 10" Meade (http://i56.tinypic.com/qrz2aw.jpg) 18 mm 25 sec f/4 1600 ISO (http://i55.tinypic.com/znlp9u.jpg) Title: Re: A couple from tonight Post by: martinastro on October 27, 2010, 07:33:57 pm Nice images Richard, and well timed too between the storms. Well done catching the Resurs 1-4 Rocket!
