Jim,
Some nice images. Thanks a bunch for your post and all the great info
on your website on your settings and equipment used for each image. I
had posted to the list awhile back, as I too have a Digital Rebel,
asking what one could do with such a camera. I tried some shots of the
moon the other night and could not achive focus via the view finder.
Got close but no crisp detail. Looks like DSLRFocus is the way to go. I
am inspired!
Thanks,
-Ron-
