Messier 101

[KichigaiNeko]

orogenicman? Are you selling these pics??

I can. Are you interested?

Hell yeah...what have you got?? As below I already have the Pleiades but I have room for at least two more photos in my bedroom!

And Zen said YES!!

(Looking for a 50cm x 50cm pic minimum)

We spent $AUD35.00 on a photo of the Pleiades for our bedroom at the local observatory signed by the photographer. orogenicman's are every bit as good imho

Not my Pleiades. It has one feature that stops me cold in my tracks every time I try to image it with my newtonian scope. The main stars are so bright that the diffraction spikes (which are common with newtonian scopes) overwhelm the image and turn it into a spaghetti mess. It is best imaged with a refractor, though I do have access to the clubs' imaging refractor. I might try that next winter (if no one finds out because I refuse to use their so-caled professional camera, which really is crap). On another note. I just got back from the observatory and managed to image Messier 51, the Whirlpool Galaxy (which is actually two galaxies in the process of merging). I will post the image in new thread.
