My first attempt at deep space photos - M13 Star Cluster
All photos were taken with a Meade 8" LX-200 f/10
This camera is supposed to be able to take fabulous pictures, however I haven't very good luck with it yet.
The manufacturer says that I am supposed to stack numerous pictures together in order to achieve good pictures. Being new at this hobby, I am not having very good luck in doing so.

After trying for a month, this is the best M13 I have come up with
Camera Setting: .0009 Lux - Automatic Shutter - Exposure Time: 2min
They say I should be taking pictures with exposure times around 15 seconds and stacking them. I will keep trying a while longer before I toss the Black Cat in the trash can.

My first attempt at Mars photos. I had the camera set at the fastest exposure time, 1 second and the shutter set at the highest speed, 100,000 fps and the picture below was still overexposed.
