I have recently purchased a Digital SLR camera: Canon EOS 450D. Today I have used it for the first time pointing to the stars in Cancer constellation.

Beehive cluster was there tonight, very bright. The maximum zoom the camera lens permits resolve some of the components in the M44 cluster.

The resulting image has been made from ten shots of 5 seconds of exposition each one.
