Backyard Autumn Nighttime Sky in New Jersey.
Gibbous Moon. Image taken with Nikon D3x camera and Questar 3.5″ telescope (ISO 100, ~ 1600 mm, f/16, 1/60 sec). Processed using Capture One Pro 5 and Photoshop CS3. With the smaller telescope I used the mirror up setting on the camera to dampen mirror vibrations for 30 seconds before taking the image.
