Equipment

A Meade DS series Saturn 114mm reflector telescope on a Meade alt-azimuth mount, and an Olympus C-750 UZ digital camera held up to a 40mm plossl eyepiece. Exposure time 1/6 second, at f/3.7, ISO 50.

Description

I was looking at an image of Saturn I took and noticed a blob with an orange hue to the upper left of the Planet, so I checked my Starry night software and discovered that it was Saturn's moon Titan. I never thought I would capture an object as faint as this with a digital camera held up to a telescope eyepiece.

Equipment

A Olympus C-750 UZ digital camera, on a Sunpak photo tripod, with a polarizing filter, and a FLD filter. Exposure time: 1/800 second, at f/2.8, ISO 50.

Description

I decided to try imaging the Sun for the first time at sunset when it was at it's minimum brightness and heat. I put the polarizing and FLD filters on, to further reduce brightness coming to the CMOS chip in the camera. The Sun's light also shows nice contrast to the clouds around it.
