I got myself a 5" Newtonian reflector for my birthday. Well chuffed.
Anyway I took it out in the garden tonight and even with the light pollution I saw Mars, and Saturn with her rings amongst others. Still think I need to colimate properly though. Anyway I put my camera on the thread for mounting a camera on the telescope (not through the view finder but on the barrel.
Here are the results.
The Big Dipper
Saturn and a shooting star
A bunch of stars
