Mars Image taken with the 6.1" EDF, June 12, 1999. It's a mix of 5 images taken at f/35 and f/40, at about 01:45 06/13/99GMT...putting it near longitude 85 I believe. It's tough because it is less than 1/10th the area size of Jupiter.
 
 


Mosaic of the moon in hazy skies. Had some trouble with the "seams" between the 4 images, but otherwise a good try. 1/100th of a second exposure, non-color.
 
 


Mosaic of the moon again, full size... two pictures combined. Seam is pretty invisible this time.
1/100th of a second.. fat crescent.
 


NGC 7331 was hard to process. I used Maximum Entropy Deconvolution to sharpen it up with no too much "noise". About 7 minutes at f/7
 


NGC7479, 9 minutes. Dim arms. B&W shot.
