Hi thanks guys ... Most crudely... I stacked them in 3 layers in Photoshop and then turned the top two layers down to 33% opacity : ) The proper way to do it...
Mike, I've played around a little with Registax. I imaged Mars with a web cam last oppostion and tried to stack them but the conditions and images were so...
Even with very good seeing tonight I could not coax the Cassini Division out of Saturns rings. They have opened up a bit quite fast it seems. I had wishful...
Hi Mike, Great moon photo. I was out on 4/4 and took some a-focal images of the moon. I still need to go through them...I'll post one if they turned out ok....
Wow! Spacewalking astronaut at ISS (International Space Station) caught on images taken through telescope! http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/astropix.html...

... Have only heard from Wayne Downs. Anyone else going?...
Last night I left the CCD camera off all night, and worked with the EOS 40D DSLR only. I also used Nebulosity-2 for the first time, which turned out to be a...
Mike, Wow, nice! Much better than I have ever gotten of M51! So, how cropped is that? What was the ISO, and how long were your subs? I'm jealous! I see no...
Hi Tom, Michael, thanks! Tom, I shot this binned 2x2 in Nebulosity, so the EOS 10D was operating at 1936x1288 instead of 3872x 2576, I guess this helps with...
I used Nebulosity-2 for the raw capture (and fine focus), and set it to save into raw files --- (not "Canon Raw" mind you) but still sensor raw data -- into...

M63 gets pretty high up, not as high as M51. The challenge with this galaxy is its much lower contrast than M51, and incredible contrast difference between its...
Mike, Very nice! Yes, that is a particularly difficult galaxy to process. I have a bunch of frames I took a month or so ago, but haven't had time to process...
Hi Tom, thanks. I use the Carboni noise actions for sure! Usually only on the background, not on the galaxy itself. Also... I go out and rotate my camera...
Last night I more than doubled my hours on the Sunflower M63. And WOW it makes a difference to keep rotating that camera randomly to progressively eliminate...
Wow, looks great Mike. I would go after another galaxy tonight. To make significant improvement on that one, you would need to double you exposure time. If...
I can see M101 from my house in Wasilla... here is 25 exposures of 5 mins each from tonight http://www.scopenews.com/m101.jpg same techniques as last time for...
In total I got 4 hrs and 15 minutes exposure on this bad boy: http://www.scopenews.com/m101lg.jpg There are ~ 2 hours of steady darkness per night right now, ...
Mike, Wow, great! I'm impressed! I got 90 minutes of M63 the night before last, with my 40D, and was thoroughly Unimpressed with my results So, last night I...
Hi Tom Oh man... snap!... I posted the wrong link.... I miscalibrated THAT shot of M101... this .. THIS is the final M101 with all 4+ hours!! ees mucho...
