Great looking photos. What kind of telescope was it?

Thank you. I use a Celestron 6SE: http://www.celestron.com/browse-shop/astronomy/telescopes/nexstar-se/nexstar-6se-computerized-telescope. The best camera to use for taking pictures of planets is a webcam. For this to work you need to take the lens out of the webcam.
