CCD vs Film? Lots of time vs no patience? Alright, this is your place to discuss all the astrophotography what's and what's not. You can discuss about techniques, accessories, cameras, whatever....just make sure you also post some nice photos here too!

No filter was used . Just 60 sec jpeg at ISO 400. I have some RAW shots with Baader LPR filter, which I have not processed yet.
