It is a 7 inch f9 Astro Physics Refractor. Makes a real nice telephoto
lens- but it's a little unwieldy.
Cheers,

Yeah, it's hell using nice equipment then having to go back to what
you own. Did you say that was a 10 inch telescope?

Bob-
Thanks- Its dead easy, all you need is a t-ring, eyepiece adapter
and a
$10,000 telescope.
I took another lunar picture with my own 80 mm telescope. Its
image, after
sharpening, looked just about like the posted image, before
sharpening.
The slate carver was a genuinely nice guy, and a great craftsman.
He said
he started out as a graphic designer, developing new fonts.

Michael,
Nice moon shot. I was drawn to the slate carver photos. I've never
seen that done before.

The moon through an $8000 telescope, a blues jam, and a Welshman
carving
text into slate.
I took a basic astronomy class, and one night the teacher opened
up the
UofM
observatory, and let me bolt my K100D to the 7 inch, f9
telescope. We
were
both happy with the results.
The Blues Jam were members of a local Blues Society-
http://www.acousticblues.com/ And the Welsh Slate Carver was
part of
this
year's Smithsonian Institution's Folk Life Festival.
The Blues Jam and Slate Carver were posted for the participants,
so I
posted
a few images that otherwise might not have made the cut.
Comments or Criticisms?
Cheers
Mike
