Zoom in and it's like standing on the damn moon itself.
In Photoshop, it is 7 megs and 110" x 110" HUUUUUGE!!

Nice! What was your setup?
Celestron CGEM 1100
Canon T2i DSLR
1/125th sec @ ISO 100
5 frame mosaic stitched in PS CS
only thing I understand about the above is canon, lol, awesome pic tho
lmao....
In English:
My telescope is made by Celestron and is an 11" aperture on a high end tracking mount (its huuuge)
Took it with my Canon attached to the telescope where the lens would normally go
The exposure was 1/125th of a second and the ISO 100 means the light gathering setting was low (your point and shoot is normally 400-800)
I took 5 seperate partial images and stitched them togetherl ike a panorama picture in Photoshop.
I dunno how long it takes you to do your stitching, but you might wanna take a look at The Panorama Factory. It's pretty amazing.
Dude...PS CS does it in like 5-7 seconds. It's pretty much cheating. I was expecting to to do it manually.
PS CS 5 rocks when ir comes to stitching photos.. I've done a few panoramas with it. You drop in the pictures you want tell it to go and BAM.. there you have it.. :)Quote:

Yeah, Panorama Factory will do that as well with default settings. It'll also create Quicktime VRs and two dimensional stitching. So you could shoot 16 pics of the moon (4x4) and stitch that if you wanna go really big...
Nice pic either way.
Here's one I shot out of my hotel window on a trip to Singapore a couple years back - 4 shots across, default settings. Had to compress the crap out of it to make it fit the upload spec, tho'...
Here are 2 Panoramic's I stitched in Photoshop while driving threw Vermont and New Hampshire.

Very Nice Guy's.
I've never been able to use Photoshop while driving... :D
Like the 2nd one. I might have cropped it differently, though, but that's part of the fun and interest pf photography.
All right smart Arse, I cropped them after I got home, at my desk while drinking a cold beverage.Quote:
