Milky Way Images

If you refer back to the video i posted up before this post, i showed you how you can make an old EQ mount work to your advantage. Now me and my girlfriend took a trip out to Cherry Springs State Park in Pennsylvania just to do some astrophotography. I couldnt have asked for a better night sky at all! Waited a while for the milky way to rise, but it was well worth it! Here are the best shots i took from that night:

Custom EQ Mount for DSLR

So i picked up a meade telescope with an EQ mount from craigslist so i can make a custom EQ mount for my canon dslr camera. I wanted to make this mount so i can do long exposure photography of the heavens above. Here's the video with what you will need to make your own in case you have an eq mount laying around! Enjoy!
