I wish I had the glass for it. We got some great clear views of the whole thing. Very cool.

Joe, those are some great images. If you don't mind, may I ask what setup you were using?

Were you piggybacking off the back of a tracking telescope?

Thanks,
Alan

Hey Alan,

Although astrophotography is something I'd really enjoy getting into, these were taken with a Nikon 200-400mm and TC14eII teleconverter (total focal length of 560mm).
