Ralph normally images with a 10-inch, Meade LX-200 Classic operating at f/20 (f/10 with 2X Barlow) using either a ToUcam or Unibrain Fire-i webcam. Image capture is done in either EquinoX or a new beta application for Firewire webcams, Astro IIDC. Keith's Image Stacker is used for basic stacking, aligning and processing; sometimes image selection is done by Sharpest Frame II. Almost all images get tweaked in Photoshop for color balance. All the images below were shot from locations in Southern California. | ||
