Description

Finally brought my telescope out again for some fun photography. I'm using a f/0.8 reducer/flattener which brings my scope to f/4.8 with a focal length of 384 mm making it slightly faster. The other benefit is the flattener really does make the edges more acceptable with rounder stars. Overall, I'm quite happy with the outcome though I think I will eventually need to upgrade to get an auto-focuser and auto-guider. I didn't do any filtering either, but in the future, I'd probably include a light-pollution filter or UV/IR cut filter for a little extra crispness.
