Hello again, I have a 70-300mm zuiko lense, what type of telescope would you suggest I use, or what else would I need. I have a 10 mp dslr olympus E-410, any help would be great, and by the way great song.

There are so many options out there to get started, the best advice I can give is to get the book Backyard's Astronomers Guide by Terrance Dickenson and Alan Dyer. There you can learn a lot about the equipment needed. But also just as important is learning how to do image processing. My favourite book for that is Photoshop Astronomy by Scott Ireland. Hope that helps!

Absolutely stunning. And I can't imagine a better choice of music to go with it: Bruddah IZ was a treasure, and so is this vid. Thanks for sharing it! Sherry at RASC Victoria Centre.

Hi Sherry, thank you. I agree that IZ's voice is 'heavenly'. I first heard him in Hawaii while visiting the Big Island.

Gorgeous!

Sometimes it's hard to believe such beauty is always there to behold, but if you look hard enough your effort is rewarded. Thanks for sharing!

[tangolimalima]

You are welcome and you are right. There is beauty all around us, here on Earth and in the sky. Capturing it in a camera can be challenging but definitely worth the effort.

Hello, these are breath taking photo's. What kind of set up did you use for these.

[tangolimalima]

Hi 3rcflyer, Thanks!

I have tried to reply several times but no joy. Most of these photos were taken with our Ceravolo 300mm telescope and an Apogee U16M CCD camera. Details of deep sky images are on our website. See posted info description.
