Re: [APML] Leo Duet



Very nice shot Chris,
    Wonderful detail in the galaxies, even if you only had 4 arc sec seeing.
I am a bit surprised by how warm you ran your CCD temperature though. Our
HIGH temperature in the prairies is -25C today, and has been like this for
about a week. Needless to say there is not a lot of AP going on in western
Canada right now. If it was possible to shoot this cold, (-30C at night or
lower) a single stage Peltier cooler would hit somewhere around -60C. I
wonder if we need dark frames when shooting that low??
    Nice to see there are a few people are able to catch a few photons and
put them to good use. :-)
