About this image

Bought this Explore Scientific refractor to use as wide angle lens and guidescope, This was a shot to see what a refractor could do with regards contrast clarity etc, and give me some idea of scale. This is a 100% crop of original picture (slight processing contrast clarity and sharpen on Photoshop). quite pleased with result especially as I had only put it on a standard camera tripod.
