Jupiter moon transit

Posted By Larry Citro
hi,

two images of Jupiter taken in very poor seeing with a Intes-Micro 6" Mac-Newt using a 3mm eyepiece and an Olympus C-2020. Taken at 10PM and 11:20 PM EST

Don't know which moon was in transit.

First Jupiter image with Toucam

Posted By Larry Citro
Hi,

Tried out the Toucam last night under very cold and bad seeing conditions ( I think the jet stream was right on top of us ..seeing- about 4 of 10 )

m42 HaOiii image

Posted By Larry Citro
Hi all,

I always wanted to try this on m42. It was low in the sky so I did't have too much time. Taken with a Televue Genesis SDF at f5, Schuler 10nm filters and a ST8-E. Processed in MaximDL and PaintshopPro. I didn't try too hard to get the core out.

The blue/grren halos occurred in the OIII image not the H alpha .. I have no idea why.

ngc 3521 galaxy in leo

Posted By Larry Citro
Hi all,

A fairly bright galaxy in Leo ..easily visible in my 6" .. actually one of the better sights in Leo for small scopes. Mag 9 12'x6' in size.

Taken with a Takahashi Mewlon 250 at f9, SBIG ST8-E 2x2 binning. LRGB 30:5:5:5 mins

A bit more colorful then the I usually do but I kind of liked it.

ngc 2841 in Ursa Major

Posted By Larry Citro
hi all,

a "snapshot" of ngc2841 a galxy in Ursa Major near the Lynx border. Listed a 6.3 x 3 mins in siz and mag 9.3 type SA.

Taken with Tak Mewlon 250 and ST8-E Lum 5min x 5 at 2x2 bin and RGB 5min each at 3x3 bin.

Processed in MaxinDL and Paintshop Pro. Looks like this one would look nice with higher resolution imaging.


clear skies,
