Astrophotos

I've only really taken a few photos through the telescope (I don't really have ideal equipment for it), but here are some of the best. All of these pictures were taken with my Fuji S1, most of them prime focus through my C11 or my Pronto, and others through an ordinary zoom lens.

 


Moon Pictures

I've taken a few pictures of the moon -- although I've taken more pictures of the moon than of any other astronomical subject. Some of them are even decent, though I haven't taken any terribly spectacular ones so far.


Lightning Pictures

Not astrophotos, strictly speaking, but this is what astrophotographers take pictures of when they can't shoot the sky.
 

The Sun

The only picture that actually belongs to this page is a relatively mediocre shot I took of some sunspots through the C11.
