Default My first pictures of Jupiter

Hello everyone,

I'm 12 years old and I have got a Newton Telescope: a Bresser Galaxia 114mm/900mm. A few weeks ago, I took my first pictures of Jupiter. I'm very happy with my first pictures, because there's much light pollution in the town where I'm living, in Eindhoven (The Netherlands). I took the pictures with a Nikon Coolpix 3700. I did treat the pictures with Adobe Photoshop 9.0 CS. You can see more pictures on my own website (click here).

Kind regards,

Freek van der Hulst.

Hello Paul,

The sun sets here are splendid, time on time. Nature in the Netherlands is also beautiful, but in the city where I'm living is there little nature, unfortunately.

I did make this picture a few months ago. The camera which I used was a Nikon Coolpix 3700.



Thanks everyone for the compliments!
