Jupiter from Sunday night

Posted By Wesley Higgins

John,

There is definitely a lot of detail there, you have a very large image scale and IMO it would look better if you down sized it some, very! good image.

Thanks,

Mewlon 250 First light

Brian,

Very nice first light image, some good seeing and a little more experience with the Mewlon 250 (a killer planetary scope) and you will have some outstanding images.

Thanks,

Sunspots and Jupiter from June 9, 2005.

Posted By Wesley Higgins

Hi Paul,

Very good images , thanks for posting I'm anxious to see some Lumenera images (as I know you are too ), that was a good idea though to up grade your computer so you can take full advantage of the LU075C.

Thanks,

Hi,

Thanks, Paul, Paolo,Luca and everyone, I prefer imaging near the terminator but when the sun is high on a crater you take what you can get 8)

Hi Paul,


That is a great! image , maybe your best this season, if only Jupiter had been at 44 arc second size again imagine how it would have looked 8O

Mars June 13, 2005

Posted By Wesley Higgins

Hi Paul,

Very nice images, interesting comparison I have wondered about using the IR pass filter to steady the seeing for Mars, an IR cut filter helps out
with focusing and blue channel bleed over.

Thnaks,
