 I spent the last two months trying to get photos of deep sky objects (galaxies and nebulas) using the telescope at full power which is 2500mm focal length. The problem with that is as you increase the focal length you are decreasing the amount of light the sensor or film will receive. And since these objects are very faint to began with I was not able to get any decent photos. But it only took me two months to see it was not going to happen. Some people are just slower than others. Or maybe it is just hard headedness!!! So now the moon is big and bright and here are my new moon photos. Only this time I used video to process instead of just one photo.
