    Observe In Comfort

    Here is a trailer that has been modified, as is obvious, into a portable observatory. At the time it had a Meade 10-inch LX200 in it. Kodachrome 64 slide 1998 RTMC. I had posted this image on my personal album but decided that the image would get more exposure being posted here.

  18. Hi, I was going to leave a comment on your previous post, and saw this image. This image gives me a kind of 3D effect. The star trails close to the Pole appear to be "elliptical" to the eye. Looks like one is in a tunnel. Very nice images. -Fred
  19. Hi Andreas, This is great. Having all this information in one location will definitely be of great assistance to those that want to further their imaging capabilities. I'm going to need a dictionary for those technical terms-well some of them. -Fred

  22. Hi Panos, Looks like a lot of people had a very enjoyable evening of observing. I am amazed at the amount of girls that attend star parties in Greece. Very few attend in the U.S., it seems to be more of a "guy" thing. Well my daughter has an interest in astronomy, probably due to my interest in the field. -Fred
