hi guys,
this is OT, o.k. but since the most of you I know are active in this thread I post this here:
I am back now from the NEAIC/NEAF show in Suffern New York.
I did enjoy many aspects of that event:
- first of all, it was so great to see at least some of you face to face after being 'online-friends' for so many years!
- certainly I did enjoy the privilege to be a speaker to the conference and THANK you all for the very nice feed-back!
- Warren gave 2 great workshops which will help to boost processing abilities of many new imagers.
- Don Goldman did a great job talking about the principals of narrow band filters, how they are manufactured and what is important before picking these. what I really appreciated was, even though he was there as an exibitor his talk did in no sense turn out to be an ad! well done!
- RJay GaBany's talk was my favourite, as I love the way as he illustrates our colorful universe.
- Neil Fleming's results in NBI is astounding! (as we all know!) he is located in the middle of highlighted Boston (which I did not recognize so far) and yet cranks out some supber stuff in this field!
- Ken Crawford disclosed some processing secrets in his talk, which I did not know yet. another boost for my AIP.
...I cannot name all talks and workshops, since I did not attend them all. I spend a lot time talking to you, which was my first place intention.
- the NEAF show is really huge! it was impressive to see - I guess - a couple million astro-stuff standing around there...boy, if money wasn't a matter...
well so, for all who weren't there, you did miss one heck of a show guys!!!
you can find some images I have taken here:

thanks.
be well,
Dietmar
