Originally posted by dakight My last moon shot was explored. I tried getting decent shots of Jupiter and The Virgo Super Cluster but they were hopelessly blurred. I did image the 4 "Galilean" moons of Jupiter but the planet was hopelessly blown out. My new equatorial mount arrives today and I'm hoping that with that and a good polar alignment I will obtain better tracking. Better focusing is going to require more practice and learning better techniques. Darker skies would help a lot too.
Congrats on the explore! Your night time shots have me itching o give it try. Unfortunately we've been overcast most of the time lately.
My Lilacs shot from Friday was explored too!
I posted late for Saturday, because we were at my daughter's power lifting competition. Never saw one before so it was pretty cool.
