Re: [APML] 7331 (again!)

Hello everyone,

    Last night I used TWO HOUR hypered Kodak Royal Gold 200 @ 90 minute exposures of 7331 (great test object) and recorded a LOT more than the previous negatives. Tracking was very good, as was the focus this time. I "polluted" these better negatives with the original Picture Window result and came up with a new image and a close up.. you can see H II regions and galaxies everywhere... in the close up, the companion galaxy to the upper left even has two faint H II regions showing. As the signal to noise ratio is increased through PW more detail and color is showing up... almost CCD! :-) 

You can see these at:

and:

     Tonight I am taking the LAST images of this galaxy in an attempt to repeat last night's results... then I will have four really good negs to work from. This has been a real learning experience...

      Tony
