Our brains wont allow us to see because it "clicks the shutter too fast for us ( even if we hold the eyes open). LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilentNight1793 Posted October 1, 2020 Report Share Posted October 1, 2020 @LOWRY_PT these images are great. I would like to know what equipment you are using for these images. I have a start on equipment, but it is nice to be able to talk with someone who is successful at astrophotography. Are you using a dlsr (modified) or a dedicated astrophotography camera like the zwo's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you very much, I actually using A couple different scopes, and They vary in length from Over thousand to just 250 mm, I was starting out with a camera That was modified but I quickly moved to a mono camera And I have several ZWO brand cams and I also have 1 QHY that I love. I do have a color camera But the mono work so much better because of the light pollution.My phone numbers 317-430-1010 You are welcome to call me and we can talk geek anytime you wantAnd you're also welcome to come by and I can help you or you can just watch us image one night or whatever...
