Jupiter In The Night Sky

[Sachphotography]

I need to find some of my old astrophotography shots..... let the digging begin.

Hey. I tried this, with very similar gear to yours - the results are... meh. It's a 100% crop. The moons weren't lined up as pretty for me...

Try a shorter exposure and maybe upping the ISO a lil?

Ooo oooo I wanna play too!!! Lol. It has been nasty here the last few nights, but I wanted to have a go at it since I saw your post.

Nikon D80 + Sigma 70-300mm @ 300mm (not sure of the EXIF)

Second is better, but I still like yours better.

This looks like it might be a nice challenge, provided the dense cloud cover disappear for the night...!

reznap, although your Jupiter is not as clearly outlined as Denny's, I like how we can see its moons rotate around it (not that we see the actual motion, but... you know... in your photo they form a circle!) I like that!

These are really cool. Makes me wish I had a 300mm...

Keep em coming!
