Jupiter 25.01.2011



Jupiter 25. jan. 2011. This is my first picture captured by Orion SSAG b/w camera and Videos Sky 2011 program. Seeing was poor and planet near horizon, so the picture is not very good, but this was more testing than serious astrophotography. 46 frames stacked by Registax 5. Orion SSAG, SW 200/1000 newtonian reflector, 2x barlow, Baader IR/UV cut filter and HEQ5 mount.

Moon 15.1.2011



Moon 15. jan. 2011. It was cold (-23 c) but clear winter evening, when I took this Moon-picture.



In this image, I tried to enhance colors by using Photoshop's saturation-tool. Not very good, because probably the aligning problem when I was stacking the frames by Registax 5 makes Moon's north pole look green...

SW 200/1000 Newtonian reflector, Pentax K100D camera and HEQ5 SynScan mount.
