M81 & M82

Good job Ivan. Two in one hit. Amazing the stellar density differences. That scope at f4.5 would have sucked the stars up if there.

I like it Ivan! Love that field of view in the Sky 90. Memories of 'scopes since sold. I regret selling my E130 and vow to never sell another Takahashi 'scope I own.

Did you notice in Klaus' latest post how the modification didn't seem to flood the image with red nebula but rather produced a more balanced look? Could be processing or exposure particulars I guess but the 5D modified is a contender I think.

Forgotten Image: Orion's Belt and Sword

Excellent excellent image! That 135mm L lens is wonderful. Great nebulosity and color. Sharp to the edge too. Keep those coming Jeff. I definitley have to get that lens. I don't know why the bright stars have those spikes but I like them very much that way! What else have you got in your archives? Surprise us.

Best,

Dan

Wonderful Ivan and a testatment to your dedication indeed. Have your fingers thawed out yet? I like the spikes. Next time take a look at the width of the spider arms in the Epsilon. About the same effect. Waiting for you to post the otherssmile

All three are outstanding Alex. Great processing. That Image Plus program seems to work extremely well.
