Re: Here She Comes...
Wow!!! That is very impressive, Mike. Venus is making a death dive now, and it is fascinating to see how fast she's dropping out of the sky. From our perspective, of course... And yet retaining that high magnitude of -4.5!

Re: Unexpected Clear Skies and the Trifid Nebula
Very nice, Steve! Great stars and fantastic extension on the nebulosity. You've caught some faint nebulosity way out to nearly the upper center and over to 3 o'clock. And the details in the center of the Trifid are very sharp. Nice way to make up for the Celts loss, BTW.

Re: Color My World
Fools (and Marines, if there's a distinction...) rush in where angels fear to tread.

Re: Color My World
Bob M was in NH. :P Well, let's see here... Nice images, Steve, and as has been said, not bad at all for a 'partial' project. A luminance channel will really make this explode, I'm sure!! Certainly, your Ha channel is showing why M101 contains about 10 distinctly numbered NGC objects. This is one co...

Re: What Subject for an Astrophotography Talk?
Yay, Steve!! Full speed ahead!!!!!!!!! Tom H has almost caught up with my wordy commentaries on your fantastic images, and we need to stay ahead of the curve.
I vote for A, but C wouldn't be bad, either.

Re: What's This? #10
shhhh, don't tell Bill, but it was a lucky guess.... Man, these things are like getting lost at a rally - you really get to know the surrounding countryside. :oops: I spent more time than I care to admit reviewing every constellation in the vicinity of Orion and Taurus, and reviewed about 25 double ...
