Description

Finally, after I could just shot a 1ms picture to the moon nearly two months ago, the last two nights have been with clear sky and I used it to use the new scope for the first time. This is my first picture after I practiced a bit with an entry level scope I bought this summer. No previous experience in astrophotography. This year I was reading a lot and looking several tutorials, that's all.

As first result, I am really happy. The next weeks will be cloudy again so I don't know when I can post again.

Had small issues on nearly everything, but at the end it worked.
