Astrophotography

I don’t do a lot of astrophotography - there are much better images available online for free and most objects in space don’t change on human time scales. However, I used to have a deep-sky rig (a Takahashi FC-76 guided atop a Sky-Watcher HEQ5) and do occasionally snap photos through other telescopes.
