Again, here is the 2nd object, IC-410, The Tadpole

Posted By Jim Thommes
Nice one Floyd - you gat a good view of those tadpoles. I really like the image quality you got out of just RGBs.

Double Cluster

Rolando,
Yep, pretty short exposures, but cool image. I like the "more color" best.

What are you testing?

Greg,
That is one very cool image. Does this mean that now you will expose for less than an hour an object and show us more images each week?

Heart of IC417

Posted By Jim Thommes
Nice Chris. At first I didn't recognize it until I realized you got in real close. There is a fair amont of structure there.

M74

Posted By Jim Thommes
Charlie,
Nice! I have an image of M74 that is 1.64"/pixel (I binnned 2x2 with a C8 at f/8). You can sure tell the difference on your .52"/pixel. Nice job.

Glorious weather

Posted By Jim Thommes
Jim,
Nice weather and nice results. I like the sharpness and definition in the nebula - it seems more detailed than one usually sees in M45 images.
