Southern Night Sky Observing


 
The third part of our trip was a week-long stay on Tivoli Farm in Namibia specifically for night-sky astrophotography of the southern hemisphere areas inaccessible to us at home.

Except for the last two shots above, the photos were shot on medium format (6x7 cm) Kodak E200 (+2 push) taken either with a Pentax 105mm camera lens at f/4 (30 minutes), or a Borg 100ED telescope with f/4 super reducer (60 minutes).

The last two photos were on 35mm Kodak E200. Details are with the enlarged photos.
