Thanks Scott! Yes. The images were taken with a 200mm (8") Vixen VC200L astrograph (telescope optimized for imaging) with an SBIG (Santa Barbara Instrument Group) ST2000XM camera on an AP (Astro-Physics) AP1200 mount out of my backyard observatory. This isn't entirely entry level, price wise, but I've only been doing CCD imaging since July of last year. A lot of people have gotten really good images with less.
