Wow, great detail and layout.
I just started to shoot the moon (with a D80 as well) and this is a huge inspiration.
Definitely worth the hookup to the telescope.
Perfectly done

Thank you very much. I have spent many hours here at dA looking to others for inspiration, I can't tell you how nice it is to hear that my work has been an inspiration.

Thank you so much for the feature. I think my Wolf Moon 2011 is much better: [link]

Nice shot.
Did you use the Prime or A-focal method?

Pulsar-Mills In reply to The-Dude-L-Bug [2011-02-11 18:53:43 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! I used Prime. When I ordered the Telescope, I also ordered everything I would need to hook my Nikon directly to it.

Cool.
Did you do full straight-through or did you keep the 1.25" diag in place?

BTW, what software are you using?
I use the USB cable & the EOS utility for remote control funtcions with my Canon cameras.

I shoot full straight through.
I don't use any software for shooting, just a remote trigger.
I do use PhotoShop to add my watermark.
