Hi,

After about four weeks I finally had some clear
skies and good seeing , I just managed to get about
an hours worth of images before the clouds rolled
in again.

01/19/04 14.5 Starmaster @F/27 , Toucam Pro webcam, stack of 702 from 1800 , 1/33 Sec shutter,65% gain, 20% Gamma

Thanks,

Wes Higgins

That one is better than the one they have up on Image of the Day Wes! Just when I thought I was catching up, you raise the bar again. 65% gain? I thought less was better. Or are you increasing the gain to raise your shutter speed to freeze the seeing? Nice job.
