Equipment

celestron c8 with canon DSLR at prime focus

Description

I wanted to capture the entire moon at the best quality i could. The scope was not tracking so i went for a high ISO and fast shutter speed to limit motion blur. The moon was low in the sky but seeing quite good. I think its about a 10 day old moon and shows some of the southern craters quite well

Description

Some fairly reasonable seeïng allowed the webcam to take this picture of teh giant planet. As I re-started astronomy after a 20 years break, I'm utterly amazed on how small equipment is now able to display details on our planets, we could only dream of so many years ago. Also big scopes are not necessary for reasonable images. I love the planets as from heavily light-polluted Belgium, this is about as far as it gets !!
