I have always thought that m106 is a really interesting galaxy.

My best attempt to date, but I was really dissapointed. I took two hours worth of exposures and lost more than half to the wind. So I still have a bit of noise. I also accidentally processed these with the wrong flats. Maybe I will redo it later.

Photo of Jupiter/Saturn?

Posted By Paul McCarl

Well here is what it looked like when I tried it. The seeing here just isn't usually that good. But I had one night several months ago where the seeing was awesome and Jupiter and Saturn both looked like pictures from Orbit. It was awesome, even my wife had to catch her breath. So keep trying. Too bad I didn't have a barlow with me that night.

Good Luck,

Paul

Ok. I wasn't going to post this because I bumped the tripod during it, but my wife likes the star clouds.

Here is a shot of M13 same setup and similar exposure. Need to use eyepiece projection next time to get more magnification.
