Hi all,
I have uploaded a few more images to my Flickr account at the following address :-

Hope you enjoy them, and I will be glad to answer any questions relating to the imaging process. Hopefully we can stimulate interest in imaging.
Bob

Now, if I could take pictures like this, then I'd call myself an astro-photographer! Especially loved the pix of Mars - really natural looking colour (that's not a very technical comment, I know, but still . . . . !) _________________ Emma H |

All great, but my favourite is Moon7.
It really brings out the relief on the craters. |

May I add my admiration, especially for this one, the resolution is superb.

Hi all,
took this image after the meeting tonight [Jan15th 2007]. http://www.flickr.com/photos/94057297@N00/?saved=1
Not too happy about the quality, but it shows the effect of the low elevation of Saturn at this time of year. You can see the effect of atmospheric refraction [image has a blue edge at the top, and red at the bottom], and if you compare it to the previous image on the page from last year, you can clearly see the reduction in the tilt of the rings.
Had to give up when the rain clouds rolled in, as well as nearly terminal hypothermia!

Great images - like Mars and the Televue moon. There's a function on Registax that compensates for the red / blue effect you have on Saturn. It's at the same point as the filter sliders.

Hi all,
on http://www.flickr.com/photos/94057297@N00/, I have posted a couple of images I took three nights ago. The first is of M51, the Whirlpool galaxy, and the second is of M57, the famous Ring Nebula in Lyra. Still learning, but things are going in the right direction.
cheers,
Bob _________________ bobh |
