These photos are from when I was trying out a Meade DS-114, a 114 mm reflector telescope. At the time, the camera I had on hand was a compact Sony Cyber-shot, and the technique was as simple as it gets: holding the camera right up to the eyepiece and shooting, known as afocal photography. With no mount or adapter, every bit of shake shows up, which is why some shots lack sharpness.
