Moon – first quarter

My first photo of the Moon. It took me a long time to finally snap a picture of it—I just couldn’t bring myself to dive into the topic. Once I had gathered the photo and video material, I procrastinated again when it came to processing it. Maybe it’s because photographing the Sun, Moon, or planets is a completely new subject for me. Eventually, I sat down and the fun began. While wrestling with AutoStakkert and editing the images, some side projects emerged—let’s call them… oh never mind. When they’re ready, you’ll find out right here on this page.

SynScan GOTO controller – trouble with buttons

SynScan GOTO controller – trouble with buttons: At some point while using the controller, I noticed that the ESC button wasn’t always working. I lived with it, but after a while, the left Ra button also started acting up and wouldn’t always connect. A red flag went up in my head – something needed to be done. It’s worth noting that the problems appeared right after the warranty period ended… coincidence?
