Just a little pride here. An un retouched photo of Orion and the Horsehead Nebula. This taken with my new Canon T3 at f5.6 with a 300mm lense unguided at ISO-3200 and a 3.2 second exposure.

Practicing with the new equipment. Canon EOS T3. Unguided on a tripod, utilizing a 300 mm lens at f5.6, ISO-1600 with a 4 second exposure, modified in photoshop to multiply background and add darkness.

New equipment new pictures. I started with some common targets to practice shooting. Orion with Jupiter to the far left. I am only beginning to get the handle here. Its a 15 second exposure at ISO3200 unguided.Canon EOS T3 rebel. I am excited about becoming more proficient.
