hi,

A image of m3 taken with my Takahashi Mewlon 250 at f12,ST8-E 2x2bin LRGB 3:2:2:2 min "snapshot"

Given the short lenght of the exposures I was surprised how it came out...I had to do a little noise filtering in paintshop Pro


clear skies,

Larry Citro

Very nice - really sharp with good detail.

hi,

Thanks for the comments. Sometimes I need a break from those looooong imaging sessions with galaxies and thats when I turn to the globulars. M3 has always been one of my favorites ... a globular interloper in the realm of galaxies.


clear skies,


Larry Citro
