mind boggling stats there Nidge, wonder if they still exist - after all we're seeing them as they were 11 millin years ago.
don't think I've ever done an exposure quite that long.
Cheers
Ade

Thank you James. The 300D has gained a big following amongst the amateur astronomy community. It is possible now to purchase the body specially modified for astronomy but it does render it nearly useless for any other form of photography.

Many thanks Fabrizio. I've always had my head in the clouds one way or another and if we don't dream we don't achieve.

Thank you Paul. Patience does help but so does a strong tollerance to the cold. The main battle when taking pictures like this is with light pollution. I live near a busy international airport and most of my neighbours have security lights beaming skyward.

Great image of these 2 M objects, especially managing to get anything in heavily light polluted skies. I didnt realise the Eos 300D was capable of such images. Thank you for sharing...just off to have a flick through your portfolio...Cheers.

I admire your patience as much as your photography, thanks for sharing.
