This one was taken with an Acuter CCD designed to replace the eyepiece of a telescope and feed directly into a laptop. My telescope is an 8-inch Celestron Celestar SCT.

The shot was taken from my backyard in Perth where the light pollution is usually so bad that I have trouble seeing the Milky Way.
