This Christmas, my wonderful GF got me something I have wanted since I was a small boy, a telescope. A damn fine one too.
I have always fancied giving astrophotography a shot, so I got the requisite attachment to hook my D80 up to the scope.
I tried many permutations of T-adaptor and ring to get a sharp image, but to no avail... or at least not in prime focus mode. I then tried projection mode, which requires inserting an eyepiece into the T-adaptor.
This is the shot I got. 1/50 sec @ ISO400
