There will be another ISS pass tonight at 8:52, WNW to SSE, 35 degrees max altitude, and it is suppose to be clear! While you are watching this be sure to...
If I have a clear view, I will try to get a picture. The guys who do this hand guide the scope. It seems quite daunting to hand guide a 5-10 m focal length...
Judy, Was there a pass around 9:00 on Friday? Mark From: brazosastro@yahoogroups.com [mailto:brazosastro@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Judy Culver Sent:...
Yes, I did. Just by chance. We were out walking and I looked up and saw it just a minute before it disappeared. Mark From: brazosastro@yahoogroups.com...
Thanks, Judy. We missed you at the meeting. Get Charlie the next time because we did have some good beer and he'd have been happy. ... From: judy.culver...
Group, Is anyone interested in a pair of high quality scope rings? I have a set of Parallax rings that I was using with my ED80 but now that it is to be used...
Yes, it was pretty neat! Saturday night was better since it was a little higher and the skies were darker. Judy ________________________________ From: Derek...
Group, The image of the Eagle Nebula that I took with the SHSU observatory's Takahashi Epsilon-200 astrograph has been chosen as the Anacortes Telescope and...
I was misled by a website that I clicked on in an email. Next thing I knew, everyone in my address book got an email claiming that I sent them (personally)...
Finally! Still missing a few movies, but all in all we are back up and running. We have two new shows for you, Two Small Pieces of Glass and Extreme Planets....
Hi Judy Thanks! It was my first shot. Hopefully they get better with more experience. It is a little intimidating to post with all the great imagers around...
I know what you mean by being intimidated by the images that others in this group post, but if that is your first image you don't have anything to worry...
Thanks for the props. Derek On Jun 7, 2009, at 12:01 PM, Judy Culver <judy.culver@...> wrote: I know what you mean by being intimidated by the images...
Hi Derek, For a first image it is quite impressive. Can you provide details of how you took the image...i.e. what camera, what scope etc.? Keep 'em coming....
Derek, That is a great photo, good focus and color detail, and an action shot with the moon. Thanks, Don ... *************************************** Don E....
Thanks Anjal and Don. It means a lot coming from experienced and successful imagers such as yourselves. As per request, picture specs: OTA CPC1100 at 5560mm...
Group, Now that my FS-60C has been sold, I do not have a use for this fine Takahashi diagonal. Perhaps one of you can use it. Art at Texas Nautical sold me...
Anjal,, After considering your offer I feel that I have no need for the Takahashi diagonal. The damaged John Croom I am still thinking about! Don ... ...
