I've taken and processed about a quarter million images over the last decade. Few of them were "pretty" pictures, but if anyone is interested in photometry,...

Hi All, Someone had to do it; "fools strp in where wise men fail to tred." I captured an image of Saturn this morning and although it was high air mass, it...
Thank you Jim and Jerry for offering to meet at your homes. I'd love to visit your imaging setups (and scopes), and methods, and as many other member setups...
