I finally got the adapter so I can attach my camera to my Bushnell 60mm spotting scope, and have been playing around with it trying to shoot the moon. The exposure is okay, but I can't seem to get the shots really sharp. Still, fun to play with. Took some shots of the crescent moon 4 days past new last night, then took the barn door tracker setup out to the field and shot the moon as it was close to the Pleiades cluster and just over from Orion. Orion is my favourite constellation, easy to find, and lots of interesting things in that section of the sky. Have to see how much I can save this summer, I have dreams of a decent telescope.
