More first light images...

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!

More first light images...

Hi there!

Here are a couple more first light images from the new instrument, mostly done to get a feel of the FOV for these objects. More stacking and perhaps colour, to come!

Hi Remus,

The resolution of the TOA 130mm is truly remarkable! Much more fine detail than the previous images taken thru the 75mm Pentax.

To think all these can be imaged from the centre of light-polluted Singapore. So much can be done photographically.

Now waiting for your colour images of Omega!
