Awesome/beautiful shot, way out of my league lol.. what are you using ??

 

Beautiful shots. Being a shut-in, I've taken up drawing. Working on a red-tailed hawk right now. Tougher than photography lol.

 

Absolutely, drawing takes real skill, and it's a skill you lose when you stop doing it over the years unfortunately, wish I would've kept up with it

 

Thank you!

I primarily image with a 91mm triplet refractor with a cooled one-shot color astro camera. This sits on top of a computer controlled Equatorial 'mount'. A few bits and pieces so at first sight the rig looks overly complex but its really not too difficult to learn what each part does and how to operate the entire setup...I've taught a number of folks the basics, in one evening, during both sponsored and informal 'Star Parties'.

 

Looks badass...... and expensive lol

 

Well it's not so bad when you piece a rig together over time. But like our 4Runners, never look at what you've spent in total!

 

I think I've seen that rig before. Ummmm....Ghostbusters, that's it!


Very nice setup!

 

I collect photons not protons!

 

shot on canon EOS RP with a 200-800mm lens.

 

Sea turtles were cool. Saw like five eating grass, free range. Didnt chance bringing the cell phone they had perscription snorkel masks.

 

You can blow these away people eat them.

 

The one on the right attacked me, luckily I have cat-like reflexes.

Nice, I haven't seen my king in a few weeks now, since we got the snow, ice, and the ponds completely froze over... he'll be back tough lol
