Resurgent Photography

After a long hibernation, I've broken out my camera again. The first set of pictures below is of the Hawken Fire, visible from my apartment. The first is aiming the camera through my binoculars. I got a lot of unfocused shots to get a couple focused ones. The second is the maximum zoom on my camera, for comparison.




The second photos are to show off a new setup I got - a small equatorial mount for my camera, and a drive motor to keep pace with the rotation of the Earth. Picture #1 is without the motor. Picture #2 is with the motor. The bright spot is Jupiter.
