RE: [APML] M33 on Fuji Super HQ200

["Patrick Freeman" <pfreeman@woh.rr.com>]

I have about 10 of my recent shots (hastily processed, so I ended up
clipping the hell out of most of the histograms - will correct them over the
next several days) at the top of my website, for any who are interested in
seeing a variety of objects (almost all at 60-minute exposures) shot with
the Fuji Super HQ 200. Link:  http://home.woh.rr.com/pfcf/astro_photos.htm

I think we have a winner film here.  My opinion only...YMMV...

P.S.  I echo the sentiments of trying a much longer shot.  I'd like to shoot
something in the 90-120 minute range to compare...of course, I now have the
same problem as everyone else on this list, lousy skies and likely to stay
that way...

Hey brian,

That's all I do. Don't have a CCD, maybe next year.

Thanks, I like it. I'm really gun-shy about processing, so I kept it real
minimal here. I plan to butcher it more later. This was simply an
informational type post regarding the HQ200 film which I think responded
really well. Like I told Pat, I'd love to be able to get a 3 or 4 hour shot
and see if the curve continues.

We're going to be in the same situation, for different reasons. Does the
Pacific Northwest ring a bell? 8-) We can hope for some holes during the
next 6-7 months, but some years those holes happen when the Moon is full.
And of course, some of our summer skies get so clouded over with smoke from
fires that it's like there never was an imaging season at all.

I agree, that's all we can do.

Thanks,
Alan
