This is my favorite among the images taken from my telephotography setup. I have taken the shot in our rooftop. I've focused the bird in my Olympus C500 Digicam, connected to my Tasco Starguide 60 mm telescope via an eyepiece converter I made. I used afocal method for telephotography and astrophotography. Afocal method is simply attaching your fixed lens camera to the eyepiece of your telescope. The only problem you can get with this technique is vignetting, which is characterized by dark area outside your field of view. This is commonly solved by zooming in.
