    Watching the sky with another thinking and looking on planets and Deepsky is very fascinating.
    I start this new hobby with the goal getting shots from deepsky.

    Like to talk about techniques and creating some nice shots. Depending on the clear sky and location it will be interesting around the world!

    You have a DSLR camera and try some shots? What kind of setup you have? What software you use to edit/stack your shots?

    My starting setup is a 6" Newton 150PDS with a N-EQ5 and a Nikon D5300.

    i add my D5300 with a simple t2 mount. Next step will be add a GoTo skyScan , AutoGuider with a better finder scope. Shot was made with a Sun Filter :) Sun looks cool if you watch it directly!
    Japan build the best stuff...
