Thanks, Craig for the information on your Telescope. This looks like a really nice telescope. I would love to see more shots you have taken with it.

Here's one of Saturn, 5 moons and 1 star. The only way to get the moons was to wash out Saturn. I had only 5-8min before the fog shut me down last night so i had no time to refine my shooting. I'm waiting for my Filters and Fine Focuser to arrive.

Keep 'em coming. It is very nice to see photos of other objects in the sky besides the moon.

Thank you Brenda, I'll keep them coming. I too am burned out on all the Moon shots. For one they're too easy to set-up. Planetary and Deep Sky are much more challenging. I have seen some pretty good shots with Telephotos Lenses too.

Hoping I get a few minutes of seeing before the fog roles in tonight.
I'm in the Central Calif Coast so we get fog 27 of 30 nights here.
Once a month during New Moon the Group goes up to the mountains for Great conditions.

This second photo is just beautiful. Do you do these shots in raw or jpeg? I am learning to do raw but can't yet compete with my jpegs.

I shoot Raw Neutral . It shows less dynamic to begin with but has alot more detail in it to customize the processing look I want.
Not what the Camera wants. Good luck.
Try the Milky Way it's real easy. If you want to know what I do I'll be glad to give you Info.

I can't answer for Walt but I don't have a telescope but I sometimes try the sky with my 150-500mm Sigma so the Milky way would be out of my scope but I still love to see yours. Thanks for your interest and offer of help.
