Tonight’s waning Moon through a Meade 2080 F/10 telescope through a 25mm eye piece.

The setting Sun over the Oakville harbour as the new Moon sets as well.

I had to try out another shot of the Moon with my new 70-200 f/2.8L, the difference between the quality from that and my old 75-300 was remarkable. The shot was cropped in order to show more detail.

Two shots of Saturn from my backyard this evening. I attached my camera to a Meade 2080 telescope. It was hard as hell to focus, so the images are a little blurry while I get used to trying to focus the telescope.
