Guest ecopley Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 The ones I've seen in the past have been taken in the Bahamas. It's a hard life, isn't it... Felix, my first Jupiter took a very long time to capture and process and delivered 6kbytes (yes, as in you could have viewed it on a zx spectrum) of blurry brown. I had to laugh or I'd have cried. I doubt I'll ever show anything like the Peach but one day I'll maybe have something that is recognisable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toymaster Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 C14; ASI120MM (mono); not sure about location. That's some big Mak. Almost as big as the price... Spent less on some cars. Is that what it takes? Ade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawson Posted February 9, 2014 Author Share Posted February 9, 2014 It's an SCT so faster at f/10 (i guess). Aperture helps; but as ed says, he does a lot of imaging abroad, where he gets better seeing and more clear nights. I don't imagine he gets to travel for free though, and he probably has duplicated some of his kit to leave a set of heavy stuff out there (that's what i'd do, but i hate lugging stuff around). If you look on his website you can see his results from over the years with different scopes; i suspect he is also a master at getting the absolute most out of his data.
