Astrophotography Adventure (cont'd) - First Photos


So, here we go - the very first attempt at imaging.  There were two inviting targets to shoot at, the Moon and Jupiter.  And here are the rather poor results:

Jupiter


The Moon

 
Both shots terribly overexposed!! Obviously, I need to become more familiar with the NightCap Pro application. I probably need the use the low ISO boost option and cut down the exposure time even more. And I've also found it hard to make sure I am properly focused when looking at what I see in the app.  But it's a start and it's clear this can be done. I think it's just going to take some trial and error with the app in order to get things right.  But that is true of any kind of astrophotography you do.
