It's really amazing how many small ( I have 6217 as 3.1' x 2.7' and
6643 as 3.9' x 2.1'; Arizona Database Release 9.0) galaxies show
detail. I know a lot of photographers that won't shoot galaxies under
10 arcminutes.

Unfortunately, at 72 inches focal length, I have to enlarge these
quite a bit, which really shows the inadequacies of the HP scanner ( I
read the list almost every day, and have followed all comments on
scanners).

Keep up the marvelous work,

Marty
