Dang Fab what kinda telephoto lense do you have???
FABulousWines said:Ha! Yes you might say that. First image was taken through a 4" refracting telescope, focal length around 650mm. The remaining three were taken through a 10" schmidt cassegrain telescope, focal length around 2800mm. These are timed exposures, most go a few hours long and require accurate tracking to account for the earth's rotation.
I guess I like hobbies that require a lot of patience.
love it !!!!!!!!!!my hide away when i need to get away.
A couple years ago I bought an acre in the mountains and built this simple observatory. It is basically a 10 x 16 shed with a roof that rolls off. I am thinking of digging a wine cellar at this location.
