Taught myself (Did some reading)
all of those were taken with film cameras. The moon shot (its just 2 printings of the same shot) was 400 speed b&w film with the camera hooked up to a telescope, so in effect there was 1900mm F15 lens.
The dark sky shots were a simple old film camera (I think its older than I am) on a heavy duty tripod. I used Provia 400 Slide film and held the shutter open for 15 seconds with a cable release. The real trick is getting a very stable tripod and a very dark site. In this case they were taken from the middle of the Negev (around Mizpe Ramon)
