Wow, great shots! Someday when I have a house I'd like to get a decent telescope for the backyard. Were these taken with equipment available to your average amateur astronomer?

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.

Those shots are epic! So how still do you have to be with that kind of "telephoto"? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> Random pic of my family crest.

Oh and track the sky with a clock drive in sub-arcsecond accuracy. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Nice crest!
