Excellent image Dean. The E-180 is an fine match to the ST10XME. I couldn't get my 180 to work well with the 11K array - too much deflection under the weight...
Outstanding, Dean. Where the h**l do you live, anyhow? On the moon? How do you get the clear sky time to produce all of these images? While you're at it,...

Hey, the moon is a nice place, little dusty at times. I have an AP 1200 on order now so when I get that puppy and start using CCD Commander all the time, let...
I am changing my web site from http://www.galaxies.com to http://www.ccdimages.com So if you have my site bookmarked on a website or have it as a favorite,...
Thanks Wes and Neil. Yup, the 6-1/2 hours seemed to be what it took to get most of the noise out of the clouds. I've got about 5-1/2 hours of OIII but I think...
Hi All, This is my first post. I've been waiting for a new focuser for my 6" refractor to show up so that I could start some narrowband work but the sky was...
Nice stuff, Matt. Killer Ha M27. That 100ED is serving you well. Have to say that your DSI images are about the best I have seen. Nice work. Cheers, Jim ...
Thanks Jim! I like the 100ED, for an ED doublet I think it's a hard scope to beat especially for the price. I recently picked up an AR6 achromat to use for HA...
Cool! The 6 inch should be fantastic. I've been using an Orion 120ST achromat for Ha and it has been killer. Have a look at this M27 shot with an Atik ATK16...
Matt, I use the Orion 120ST achromat with a Crayford replacement focuser, and the Ha images are as good as any I've seen. Nick 40° 00' 00' N 82° 52' 47'' W ...
That's a GREAT photo! Have you tried any tricolor narrowband (HA, OIII, SII) with it yet? Matt ... From: Jim Ferreira To: astro_narrowband@yahoogroups.com ...

Hi all, I have been a member of this group for a while, and have seen some of the very nice images posted here. I would like to become more active in...
Hi Neil, Thanks! Yup, I gottum filters. All three are the CS flavor, but I think for this target I'll probably add 2 hours of OIII and snyth the green. As I...
I think you're right about that, but not 100% sure. I'm not sure many folks have tried the SII. ... www.flemingastrophotography.com Direct from Boston -...
This was processed with CCD Stack using data reject and sum combine. I mixed the H-Alpha into the red and blue channels at about 75 and 10 percent. Final...
