Hi All, I just posted M-27 (The Dumbbell) taken like the Veil; by putting everything through a Hutech LPS filter, but this image is using my Mewlon in the same...
Hello Jim, Great! results at: http://tech.ph.groups.yahoo.com/group/mdasimaging/photos/view/ff24?b=36 Just to clarify. You are always using two filters. Right?...
Jim, Thanks for the explanation. For our next SIG meeting maybe you could prepare a presentation on "Wishful Processing". I know I practice it, but still ...

Hi gang, I am back from my class and I noticed that we have two new members. Way to go, we now have 40 members in all. I also closed the poll regarding the...
Jim, Please do not feel that you need to clean up your album of images. We very much enjoy the images and we also are only at 5 percent of our capacity for...
Hi Rob, I have photos from the China eclipse to share. I can also bring the scope/setup for show and tell... I have preliminary processed images including a...
Hi All, I added the Cocoon Nebula to my group. I had greater plans for the Cocoon, but I had to have an operation on my shoulder and after surgery (and this...
Your results (0.02 mag diff between 60 sec & 120 sec exposures) suggests to me that you have a saturation problem either in the comp. star or the variable. ...

Greetings Imagers, I got a message from Kris Koenig and Dan Koehler at the Chico Observatory. Kris has gotten quite skilled at putting together award winning ...
Hi All, This nebula isn't easy and it's not very large. However, I used my technique of doing LRGB through a Hutech LPS filter. Although I'm still in this...
Jim, I like the image very much. Shooting LRGB through the LPS filter seems to be yielding great results. How long was the total exposure time? Re: your...
Hi Rob, The "L" time for the image was about 75 minutes and the RGB time is about 45 minutes each. I vary them to get the same light level; for example R...
Hi All, I just posted an image of M 74 which besides being a dim galaxy is tough to acquire. The image is LRGB-nd, which means that my LRGB images were taken...
Jim, Very nice image. I am still in awe of what can be accomplished in a back-yard with todays equipment, compared to 30 years ago. Hope you're feeling...
Hi All, I was looking through my archives and realized that about two years ago I took an image of M 74 through my FSQ which is obviously a wide field image....

I'm working on a project to repeat the Eddington/Sir Dyson eclipse event to support the notion of time-space curvature caused by the sun. In the original 1919...
That is interesting. I knew that he invented that whole vacuum-on-a-ball concept, but never realized he was into the time-space curvature thing as well. Sir...
OK. OK. You win! It did take Eddington, who was a junior Cambridge astronomer to convince the Relativity-doubting-Dyson to do his thing. You don't become a...
Hi All, I just posted an LRGB image of NGC 891, the very best edge-on galaxy in our hemisphere. The seeing lately has been very hazy, but I've continued with...
