Hey all. Just picked up an Astro-tech AT72-ED, roughly a month ago. Mainly purchased it as a wide field scope for astrophotography...galaxies, nebulae, stuff like that. But since I've yet to find time to get under the stars, I figured I'd try my hand at birds. Got the following shot earlier this week, and was fairly happy with the results, especially considering it's my first effort with such a setup. Astro-tech Field Flattener and 36mm extension tube used, and shot with a Canon 20D. 50% or so crop. After seeing what Paul can do with a small scope and a barlow, I'm considering picking up an Antares 1.6x 2".
