    Default The Moon



    Hello everyone,

    I've just introduced myself at the introduction forums, but I wanted to share you guys my first planetary photo.
    I've managed to picture the moon with my Bresser Galaxia 114/900 and a modified Philips ToUcam Pro II without any tracking device.
    Not bad for a beginner like me, huh?

    Regards,

    S. Kasmin
