First Light

Here are a couple quick images, first light with my new refractor. I have mostly been a visual guy since the days of film faded, but have never had a chance to get a decent M42 and have always wanted to capture the trapezium. Didn't quite do that with only a 5" scope. But anyway, this was a 1 min unguided image with my D70. By the time the rain cleared again, Orion was long gone. So will try longer next season.

Clear skies,

Here is the second, which was a 9day moon.
