Re: [APML] A Japanese wide-field film imaging site

["Michael Stecker" <mstecker@dslextreme.com>]

I have also had trouble finding Asian astrophotographic websites.  As a 
matter of fact I have only found two that image with CCD's after searching 
for two months.  In contrast, I have found many in the USA and Europe.  I 
actually found more astrophotographers in the small country of Austria than 
the entire Asian and African continents!  I even searched the gallery 
section of Takahashi Telescopes and found only one person from Japan with no 
website or email listing.  So it appears that either there are very few 
Asian astrophotographers or they are reclusive.
