About:
Welcome to my Astro Site. I put this site together to show what can be done with entry level astro equipment and a point and shoot digital camera. 
My Location:
Pittsburgh Pennsylvania- The light polluted skies make it a challenge  for visual observing. Most nights photography is out of the question.  The conditions and my entry level equipment make this hobby very challenging but sharing astronomy with others is a great reward. 
 
My Equipment:
  • Celestron 4.5 Inch Newtonian 
  • Orion EQ-2 Motor Drive
  • Misc EPs and 2x Barlow
  • Sony DSC-S85 Point and Shoot Digital Camera 
  • LE-Adapter
  • Sony RM-DR1 Remote Shutter Release
