CCD vs Film? Lots of time vs no patience? Alright, this is your place to discuss all the astrophotography what's and what's not. You can discuss about techniques, accessories, cameras, whatever....just make sure you also post some nice photos here too!
I am a beginner in astrophotography, do not have a scope yet and Singapore's sky is not always cooperating anyway. So I am using the remote telescopes of htp://telescope.org as an practical alternative. I started with 3 photos (R.G.B) of the North America Nebula. Then I am self-teaching how to merge them on GIMP.
I wonder if other Singastro members would be interested in having a workshop under the guidance of our experts on image manipulation? Like we meet somewhere with PCs and some FITS files and practice merging, correcting, rendering... Certainly better way to learn + fun!
What do you say?
