Christmas Eve Astrophotography.

Those are beautiful!
And you that with a 400 film speed? Jesus fuck. You did good. Depending on the camera youvise however Id recommend 1600 or maybe 3200 if it looks good.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player, That struts and frets his hour upon the stage, And then is heard no more. It is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing.

Next time I'll go with 800ISO and bump it up one and just go with longer exposure times. It'll do 1600/3200 but Orion is a pretty bright object so I'll probably see how it goes one session at a time. All in all I'm pretty happy with this. I don't have a guidescope or anything. Just the telescope, a field flattener and the camera with my tracking mount.

Even through the LCD real time view I'm able to see the stars at the core of orion, albeit faintly, which is nice since I use those as a focus point and focus the telescope based off of those at a 10x zoom.

Can you get canis major is on a canon rebel? If its a fairly easy one I may make that a personal mission. I was writing a story about it a d the experience of shooting g it would help there

I hope I'm not here in the endtimes when those stars are going to start falling to earth. It's going to have to be a heck-a-va cave to be able to save ourselves from that.

Did you hit your head and convert to Christianity?

That's so silly, how could they get through the dome holding up the upper waters? Oh unless you're referring to the windows that god opens to make it rain. Do you thing one of those bigger basketball sized stars might squeeze through those droplet sized holes? Impossible!
