Really interesting shots, thanks. What kit do you use?

Really interesting shots, thanks. What kit do you use?

They are taken with a Telescope, a 2x Barlow and a DSLR. This is my old setup below but I have upgraded to a larger scope and newer camera but basically the same method. My current scope is an Orionoptics VX12 which is a 1200mm f/4 with the 2x Barlow you are getting a 2400mm lens effectively.

That's impressive. Many thanks.

These are very cool!

That's some very serious bit of kit
