Scanning prints

Posted By Brian Pope
For those of you who use prints, and scan to rework in computer. What resolution do you scan at for best rework? Scanners can scan very high, so do u go 150, 400, or what? Where does the point it doesnt help come in. Here is a simple moon venus from other night.

New digi cam pic- the bad boys

Posted By Brian Pope
Well, just a fujiS5000, but its still nice to see some stuff on computer after just taking the pic. Thru the window of the house. The bad boys are the bluejays, they run in flocks around my place and the starlings usually run with them taking a second seat to the jays.All birds leave them be cept for large red-bellies. Those woodpeckers dont run from no bird, lol.

chairs....

Posted By Brian Pope
Hi all,
I know this has been done before, but, I would like to here about the different observing chairs you all have. I have seen the commercial ones like stardust, and would like a chair that does not take alot of space, and maybe the seat kinda swivels. Need some comfy seat out in the cold.
Thanks for the time!
