    Very nice. I thought mine looked nice until I saw yours! Wow! What's the setup you were using? Here's what I'm using:

    here is my set up , i use the scopetronx
    adapter that fits directly into the eyepiece, I also use two tripods as the telescope gears have trouble with the weight.rolleyes1.gifrolleyes1.gif

    Great setup! Is the mount motorized for tracking the stars when you shoot? I suppose the other tripod might pose a problem!
    You need a support off the scope for the camera and a counterweight to balance it out.
    Loved the shots!
