these 6 images are new and or newly
processed since the big catalog went up . I am still using the
same basic setup, a Meade LX200 10 inch f6.3 with piggybacked
Meade 2045S spotitng scope at f20 and a Meade Pictor 201 XT or
216 XT as the autoguider. The film is, as usual, the discontinued
Kodak PMC, hypered in forming gas for 6 hours at 5psi, 50 degrees
C on an open reel. I process my work through Costco 1- hour photo
and scan the resulting 4x6 prints into a mac G3... enhancemant
is done with Photoshop 5 LE that came with my Pablo graphics tablet.....using
ideas from several sources and some of my own.
