Hey guys, I'm going to be posting some cool, real space pictures that I have taken.

Pictures either taken with a 8-inch Takahashi Newtonian telescope on a Takahashi equatoril mount, or with a FC125 refracting telescope on a Takahashi equatorial mount. Cannon 20Da. Multiple exposures, usually between 25-40 seconds, layered.

Orion Nebula


Flame Nebula


M31


Walking Man Nebula


The Moon

If you can fill the unforgiving minute with sixty seconds' worth of distance run, yours is the Earth and everything that's in it.

The truth is you're the weak. And I'm the tyranny of evil men.

Need an s-ship? If you have Gold just search Jangos, then select the price you want. If you don't have Gold just pm me for a design.

Yeah the equipment is very expensive. We have ours in a dome, so that upped the cost even more. But once you have everything installed all you have to pay is the electric bill, because it's a digital camera. I think probably upwards of 25k for everything.

Yeah the clarity and coloring is because of the layering, if it was just one picture it wouldn't look nearly as good.
