01/27/2007 - SECOND NIGHT OUT WITH MEADE LPI

It was the second night out with the LX90 and the Meade LPI. This time, I got much better focus. Practice makes perfect. Unfortunately, seeing conditions were not quite as good. I finally quit the moon and slewed over to the Andromeda Galaxy, hoping to get my first deep-sky image. You'll see the result of that on this blog later. However, for now - here are some more great lunar shots ... some with the Meade LPI and others with the Canon EOS 20D ...

Hey Daddy!!! This is soooo cool! We are learning about the moon and sun positioning in school and I thought I would see if you had any good pictures I could show. These are awesome!
The Naked Astronomer (Daddy) responds: Thank you, Kayla! Yes, there are some cool shots here. Thanks for your note! And best of luck with the assignment!
