First pics...

....in ages, I've not had the chance to take any astronomy related
photographs in ages; and so when we bought a new digital SLR I thought
it would be worth a go. The sky had started to brighten and there were
too many clouds about for anything worthwhile but it was a good time
to experiment.

Camera Nikon D40, I've just bought the remote control for it so I'll
be trying that out for some long night time exposures :-)
