Hey Steemians,
Already a long time since my last post.
Yesterday I got the chance to practice a little bit astrophotography again. Nothing special, I've tested some new drivers and software. After the successful tests, I tried to get some shots of the nearly full Moon. Well... my telescope let too much light in and the camera is too slow with a minimum exposure time of 50µs. I would never have expected, that I would have oversaturated areas with a focal ratio of f6.5. To get my telescope a little bit slower, I build a "shutter" that can be put in front of it. The plan was to test it this night but guess what... Yes, it's cloudy again.
