my 'new toy' does the night sky 7-1-04

[nthfinity]

overlooking my mom's nieghbor's house. it was quite bright in the western portion of the sky at that time due to a full moon... which kills the ability of stars to appear as bright. both these photos are level curve enhanced to show as much of the night sky to its fullest, which is why this 12am shot looks like it could be 8pm



this one turned out much better then i could have hoped no special tools invovled here, just a digital camera, and its peak exposure time of 30 seconds.

im hoping by the end of the summer to get attatchments to connect my camera to my telescope... who knows, mabey a comet will be named after me

Cool, I haven't seen stars in a LONNNNG time. Probably not since the major blackout!
