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...
Hey gang, The upcoming Imaging SIG Meeting is on the 11th. Is there anyone who would like to volunteer to give a presentation for that date? Remember, it...
Hi all, I could give a short talk of my co-discovery of asteroid 2008 SK9D --- oh, And how it changed my life! [It didn't! -- That's why it would be a short...
Hi Rob, Â If anyone is interested, I might be able to put together a talk on image sensors, digital image capture or techniques for dealing with noise,...
Man! I would vote for that any day. That is of interest to all of us! Two thumbs up!!! Michael P.S. - Rob, "Just say Yes" to paraphrase Nancy Reagan. "Just...
Hi Rob et al., I would like to hear both talks. I personally like the 15 to 20 minute talk like the "What's Up" at the MDAS meeting. We could easily hear both...
I agree with Jim. Michael, would you be able to give a presentation on Asteroid 2008 SK9D? That would be a very interesting talk. Alan, you had mentioned...
Hello Rob, Yes. And it will be short, and to the point. I'll just re-enact the few minute process of discovering it. Then answer questions. We're after...

Hello Rob et al, I came down with what I hoped was a small cold Thursday. It have turned into a chest cough. I don't want to do the uncivilized thing and...
Hi Rob, I have a presentation on noise all set. See you tonight. -Allen ... From: Rob Haitsma <porsche_robert@...> Subject: [mdasimaging] Great idea Jim ...

Sure. I miss one meeting, and now it's a wine and cheese event! :-) Tudexos, the press, live televised speeches.... And I'm in bed having chicken soup with a...
Michael- Very classy of you not to pass on your "gift!" Hope you get well soon. I was going to say to you about the dim asteroid problem that 2 things might...
Jerry, Thanks. I also don't shake hands when I have a cold. :-) Michael _____ From: mdasimaging@yahoogroups.com [mailto:mdasimaging@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf...
Hmmm, no big deal. I saw a speaker at the 2008 AIC and he suggested 3D processing on images. Now that... would be really cool. Everything else is, is so...
Hi all, I saw the flier at the meeting today so I joined the group. I haven't done any imaging and I don't even have equipment for it yet. But it's something...
Stuart, Welcome to the SIG. Like Michael says, there are a couple of people who image using their DSLR. Ron Sigourney would be an excellent resource on this...
Hey Michael, I just wanted to make sure that you still had your talk planned for the next SIG meeting. I want to try something new for the newsletter and I...
