M1, M42, & Machholz from Saratoga

by Jim Solomon

Here are some recent pics (and even a movie!) with various scopes, cameras, reducers, Barlows, and what-have-you's. Thanks much to fellow Saratogan Rich S. for letting me borrow his Modified Canon Digital Rebel (300D) and for joining me for a fun night of imaging on one of these shots. Nothing like sitting out under the stars with a glass of wine while the equipment does all the work! :)
