Hi Sam,

I use my 254mm, 1150mm Newtonian Reflector on EQ5 mount and capture with my QHY5 Planetary Imager.

Here are some more pictures taken on the same night using 2x barlow lens.

Hi bro,

Yes. I've been shooting since the beginning as I can't afford expensive deep sky cameras. :D

But I've bought one good secondhand Canon DSLR recently. I'll try with that when I got chance. For the time being, weather is not stable yet. :(

Cheers!
