Antelope Valley Astronomy Club -

Shot with a Meade DSI-C through a Celestron C9.25 @ f/6.3 20 exp x 60 sec each. Adjusted curves and histogram in Photoshop.

This is M51 shot at prime focus through my C-8. I can't find any notes on this shot, all I know is the film was Fuji Super G 800. The negative was scanned and the curves adjusted using a procedure from Jerry Lodriguss.

Shot at prime focus through my C-8. The exposure was 20 min. on un-hypered Fuji Super G 800 with a Minolta camera. The negative was scanned and the curves adjusted using a procedure from Jerry Lodriguss. This was to practice guiding, like all my other shots on this night. Next session I go for longer exposures.

Shot through a 210MM lens on a Minolta camera at f/3.8. Exposure was 5 min. on Kodak Gold 400 film. Then I scanned it into Adobe photoshop and duplicated the layer and combined them using the multiply mode. This was just practice for guiding the scope. Next I try through the scope.
