Some moon shots from last night. was created by jmckeon
Set up the scope last night despite the fairly strong wind. It turned out to be a pretty good night for moon viewing. I managed to take these shots using backyardEOS. Its a great piece of software from canon that will work with almost any EOS dslr. I'm sure most of you have heard of it/used it, if not check it out.
This shot is a mosaic of two images as the moon won't fit into the fov in prime focus.
I took this shot using the 5X zoom in backyard eos, it works quite well.
The telescope is a C8 SCT, the camera used is an EOS 1100D.

Great images! nice details on the blow up shot. I tried Backyard EOS before but now using APT (

) and not looking back!
