Jupiter and the Other Side of the Bay
Shot through my telescope. I made my own adapter for my Canon SLR - took like 10 minutes and off I went - first about 5km distance across Wellington Bay. And here's Jupiter and a couple of it's moons - not very exciting, but, well, a bit.
Hi! I've got a Canon 40D, with which those images were taken. I shoot most of my photos with a 5D (mark I) and a 50 mm prime (f1.4). It's my favourite combination. Sharp and not a lot of distortion - good as reference. I shoot tiles a lot too.
Hello! I just read your interview with e-on software. Very inspiring. As a student artist, it's nice to hear stories from veterans about how they made a place for themselves in the industry. Thank you for sharing. I'm curious about this blog post, and was wondering, what telescope are you using for these shots? The image of Jupiter and its moons is surprisingly clear for being taken from a coastal city.
My name is Peter Baustaedter - I am a digital artist and have been working in visual effects ever since 1995. My first movie was "Apollo 13". My recent movies include "King Kong", "30 Days of Night", "X-Men3", "Jumper", "Prince Caspian", "The Day the Earth Stood Still","The Lovely Bones". Most recently I contributed to James Cameron's "Avatar".
This blog is about sharing my art, my music, my photos and occasionally my thoughts about this and that.

Which canon are you using for your photography? Is that the same camera you use for taking reference pictures for your matte work?
