I Shoot The Moon

the Moon

moon, originally uploaded by david parmet.

My first attempt at astrophotography.

Basically I attach my D80 to the back of an LX200 using a special adapter and *presto* the telescope becomes a super telephoto with a 2500 mm focal length. This is actually three images combined into one so I could get the whole of the Moon into one frame.

I’ll put up a cleaner version tomorrow.
