Any proof this are really your pictures? Look kinda fake and token closer to the moon then where the earth is


I can promise you that all of these pictures i am posting are 100% real and have been taken by me unless I state otherwise.
I don't photograph with my Samsung phone anymore. It's all my either from my Nikon D3200, NexImage 5 Planetary and Lunar USB webcam taken through a 6" Dobsonian Reflector telescope.

How much did your telescope cost?


I paid $350 at the time for it.

Took this tonight with a Nikon D3200 through 6 inch reflector scope
Settings: 34mm focal length, f/4.5, 1/50 exposure time, ISO 200
One of my favourite moon cycles

So i recently got an intervalometer remote timer for my camera which allows it to take pictures accoring to the settings i put in. (Takes 30 second exposure, waits 1 second then takes another 30 second exposure for example) and then you stack the images when you're done and make "Star Trails"
This is my first one ever, i could do way better but im new to it and i REALLY need to get away from all this shitty light pollution in my town :( oh well. Next one will be better! This was approximately 3330 seconds worth of pictures.
