Well, here I am... SQUEEZING every bit I can from the little Starshoot camera and the "almighty" WO 66-SD refractor... wink

I went out last night to The Everglades, with a group of other 20 nuts... and we had a blast for about 6-7 hours. Temperature was about 45F, but with the wind it was dropping into high 30s... BRRRRR!

Anyways, here is my first shot from last night..., I had a blast! 8)
Stack of 40x40s, WO 66-SD with an Atik .5 f/r, Orion Starshoot camera.


Clear skies!
