More Images Taken With the Vue-60is Imaging System

The following images were taken at the X-Bar Ranch, near Eldorado, Texas, in July, 2006. A Hap Griffin-modified Canon 300D (no IR filter at all) was used on a Tele Vue-60is imaging system mounted on a Losmandy GM-8 mount and autoguided with an Atik IIhs webcam and GuideDog software. A Baader IR block filter was used to control excess infrared.

These images were stacked and aligned using AIP4Win V2 and further processed with Photoshop 7.0.
