tss you should try to take picture of mars or something maybe an asteroid too..and some stars up close..i bet stars look different in that thing...good pictures
oh crap i just crapped myself...crazy how as i sit here those gigantic planets are outthere just spinning..RIGHT RIGHT NOW and in them are probably like crazy storms and lightnings and twisters like weve never and probably will never see...and...wow its like the end of the world if i were there...but instead im here in earth sitting down in peace...and then i wonder what the other side is like all dark probably and who knows what kind of reactions take place at night over there...im high...Quote:

Those are some very nice pictures, great view! I love how different the surface looks when you really take a good up-close look as opposed to the naked eye...
Very nice! :thumbsup:
I'm surprised no one has asked yet, what size (aperature) are those telescopes (threadstarter + 2nd person) ? What size do you need to take pics like that in other words? I got a telescope, 4 1/2 reflector I think, and all I could do with it was look at the moon briefly. Granted I never handled a telescope before so I had no clue on a lot of things, but it was supposed to be "go to" and it never went anywhere you wanted it to! :D
I looked at Saturn in it and all I could see is what I can see with my 8 x 40 binoc's, a bright yellow-orange "star", maybe with the faintest trace of rings. I was expecting a lot more, and couldn't get it into focus with the larger eyepieces. I don't know if it was defective or me, but they took it back. Once I have more money, I would like to get a better scope so any ideas would be helpful. thanks
peace
Nice shots man. I too like stargazing. My wife and I have been thinking about getting a telescope.
