ToUcam Pro First Light - Mars

Your off to a great start Mark. You have the same problem I have with Mars just not getting high enough in the sky. But if this is your first attempt, your gonna blow away any image I have. Good show old chum!

I have an 8" LX200 @ F6.3 and a ST7E guided with an ST5 and e-finder assembly. The two frames were put together in photoshop. Thanks for looking.

Little Ghost planetary nebula

Posted By Brian Maynard

Looks like an eyeball peeping through a key hole ;0. There must be a million objects to image at the focal lenght your at. Did you retire the refractor? I would guess you've imaged all the wide feild shots.

Mars - 7/24/03

Posted By Brian Maynard

Thats a good image scale without a barlow. In fact my 8" with a 5x powermate is the same size as the image your posting here. What kind of camera and scope are you using?

Hi Jefferson, I saw some great potential with your image so I brighten it up a bit for you. Great shot.

Great work Jefferson. I wish I could get such a good image. And I have an 8" scope!

Crescent Nebula Color

Posted By Brian Maynard

I agree Ron on how dim it is, something like 30th magnitude? My ST7 NABG just couldn't get enough detail with out those four bright double stars blooming like crazy. As usual you've done a fine job not only on capturing the dim nebulosity but also splitting those double stars. I like it.
