yep, another star added to your universe
I was playing with a telescope. This is how far Jupiter, it's moons and 'local' stars moved across the frame in 30 seconds. Fun, eh?
Thanks for clicking on the 5 stars above too.
Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving And revolving at nine hundred miles an hour...

Thanks, Aafke. I've been thinking about the pictures I take and I've discovered that I like capture people going about their business. I find my daily routine involves being in-doors where everything is within arms-reach. I really appreciate space and light.
oh . . ?
any star will do nowadays. few 'moons' also okay :)
Hey, that is NICE. It's about a lot of things, lov'it.
I was given an old telescope about two years ago so I finally got around to trying it out last night. I think the lens diameter is 4 inches, the focal length is 900mm. I mounted my camera on it with a t-mount adaptor and used the Moon to focus at infinity. After about 15 minutes searching I managed to get Jupiter in the frame. I fired off a range of shots at a range of shutter speeds and ISOs. The whole set-up was very unstable so I used the self timer to avoid shake.
I think the background 'stars' are really sensor noise. I like this one because you can chearly see four moons, Europa, Ganymede, Io and Callisto. (Top to bottom) With a lower ISO in this picture you can see two bands of cloud on the planet.
The picture was taken through a slightly foggy velux window. I would have had to try find Jupiter again If I opened the window so, I think I'll try that another time.
I'm glad you like it. 8D
Very good. Care to shre the tech details?
Thanks, she's a little stunner and we are all crazy about her.
Hey Brian, thanks very much. There's a story attached if you follow the link in the description. It explains the title.
Oh, I'm very good at breaking things. 8D
If you don't do anything, you won't break anything either.
