Re: [Utah-astronomy] 45ED Imaging-You’ve Got to Be Kidding
Thanks, Tyler. I was roped into giving a talk at the library at that time, which I much regret. Counting myself, Cory and my friend Ray, a total of eight attended. -- Joe ------------------------------ On Sat, Nov 24, 2012 10:43 AM MST Tyler Allred wrote:
Thanks Joe. BTW - I missed you this year at the Kanab Imaging Festival. Cheers, Tyler

Bravo, Tyler!

Great shot, Tyler! If I ever get the time, I would benefit greatly from hanging-out with folks like you. I've had a nice astro camera for a long time now, yet haven't had the opportunity to use it at all. When I have free time, the sky is crap. When the sky is clear and dark, I have to work. Without fail. There are people doing supernovae and exo-planet searches using only DSLR camera lenses of 50mm aperture and less. Wide-field surveys made possible by excellent imaging chip resolution and computing power. There are many deep-space objects that subtend large angles on the sky. Going with very short focal lengths is often the only way to image them in their entirety, without a lot of PS work to align and stitch multiple field images together. This type of astro-imaging interests me greatly. "Big Picture" stuff. You also aren't quite so dependant on excellent seeing, such as is needed for most galaxy imaging at much longer focal lengths.
