More astrophotography
Nov. 3rd, 2005 08:16 amAs I am still getting accustomed (tearing hair out with frustration) to the DSI Pro and it's software, I decided to use my old DSE Webcam for some shots of Venus and Mars.
I finally got the exposure and filters right to not overexpose Venus images.

Venus through violet filter

This is my best Webcam shot of Mars yet.

I also did some experimenting with the DSI. I am sure I will get the hang of it sooner or later.
This one here was me seeing just how long it took Mars to move out of the objective. Kind of liked the effect so saved it.

Still having trouble with the exposure here, even with Auto exposure selected. I will get it, cuz I am too stubborn not to.
