18. Telescope with
attached eyepiece clearly visible.
|
17. Dome with telescope
just visible. A little too wide for my lens. Could do better with a
good wide-angle lens.
|
19. This is the "business
end" of the telescope when the dome is open.
|
Unfortunatly,
there are no enlargements available for these three images ...
...
however, I think the three below more than make up for their lack!

|

visual - eyepiece at left is visible.
|

eyepieces, of varying magnification, are clearly visible toward the
