Default Random Sky/Laser
Took this tonight in the freezing cold...it's with a Nikon D50, Sigma 28-70 F2.8, and a Lucentoptics Envee 100mW.

The lasers are pretty cool for star pointing and anything to do with astronomy. Other companies have lasers where you can only keep them on 100 seconds and have to turn them off for 30 seconds...with these, you can keep them on as long as you want. You can buy them at http://www.lucentoptics.com or visit their forums at http://www.lucentoptics.com/board for any questions you may have.
