a friend has a stargazer or something like that. its a pretty normal consumer grade telescope. its i think 1500mm. it was just a tad over $1k including all necessary bits to mount it to his 30d. the detail in the moon was mindblowing.

Just another lens for the bag, eh? LOL More like a truck!
"Excuse me, just put that lens in here!"

Look, I did not create the optical laws of the Universe ... I simply learned to deal with them.
Remember: It is usually the GLASS, not the camera (except for moving to Full Frame), that gives you the most improvement in your photography. flickr® & Sdi
This hasn't been processed at all, and was taken from a moving platform - a boat, but we got pretty close to allow this shot, which is not the closest but I like it with the mountain backdrop.
Most excellent happenstance composition. It is rare to be at such an angle for that to occur. Way to go!
