Re: [Utah-astronomy] Why astrophotography?

I'm afraid I'm a little low tec when it comes to astro-photography.  Like Daniel, I find what Tyler, David and Patrick do to be a little too expensive.  Therefore, I'm limited to my Canon Rebel XTi and a simple zoom lens.   While other SLAS members were at the Pit-n-Pole, Capitol Reef, SPOC or in Steve Fisher's yard, I ventured on over to a local public park to get this shot of the moon and Venus this evening. http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=3425
