Hi all,
Thought I'd share some of my deeper images. Both M81 and M82 are 1-hour exposures (6 x 10-minute exposures). Taken with a Tak FS102 on an EM200; camera is an ST-7E (hope to add that info to my web page - it's kinda new). No filters were used (don't have any yet - waiting on an IDAS LPS), and no flats taken (just dark subtraction). Blooms were removed using the bloom removal tool in CCDOPS (makes the bloomed stars around M82 look double-lobed). Both images deconvoluted using CCDOPS' DDP filter.
Comments and feedback appreciated.
Eric
