Moon through a DSLR Camera

April 9, 2017

Starlog October 15th, 2018, 7:25 p.m. local time

Wonderful stargazing weather.  That is how I would describe last night, though I am sure some would disagree because it was a little on the chilly side.  For me, the colder the better, as it keeps the bugs away.  Clear sky and just a little breeze made for a great chance to see this October’s Southern showcase of Saturn, the Moon, and Mars.

I took this picture of the Moon with my phone through my 10″ Dobsonian.  It had been some time since I used this equipment setup, as I have been opting to use primarily my digital camera.  But for the Moon, afocal photography with a smartphone allows for the entire surface, and then some, to be captured in one image.

On a side note, afterward I used the light cannon on different parts of the sky, observing the Summer Triangle, Sagittarius, and Cassiopeia.

I am the founder and creative director of Computer Looking Up. I have been fascinated by space since childhood. My interest in technology also runs deep, rooted in fond memories of the CRT-anchored desktops my father tinkered with in the early 1980s. Professionally, I have spent over 30 years immersed in the technology sector, serving in capacities ranging from programming and IT to project management. Outside of work, my passions lie in astrophotography, astronomy, and philosophy. Through ComputerLookingUp.com, I explore these interests and aim to build a community where we can share insights—I hope you will join the conversation.
