M33 -- Triangulum Galaxy496 viewsM33 -- The Triangulum Galaxy or Pinwheel Galaxy, a spiral galaxy in Triangulum. LRGB image captured on two nights, reduced in Maxim DL 5, aligned and combined in CCDStack, processed and LRGB combined in PixInsight, final color correction in Photoshop CS2.

NGC 3628 -- Spiral Galaxy in Leo466 viewsNGC 3628, a spiral galaxy in the constellation of Leo, and one of the Leo Triplet galaxies. This image is my first CCD image from Lake Riverside. The conditions -- high wind that came up after midnight -- limited the total exposure time. Processed in Maxim DL, CCD Stack, PixInsight, and Photoshop.

M63 -- Spiral Galaxy in Canes Venatici572 viewsM63 -- Spiral Galaxy in Canes Venatici, taken on a poor transparency (3-4/10) night, reduced in MaximDL, aligned and stacked in CCDStack, stretched, CRGB combined, sharpened with PixInssight, final processing in Photoshop with noise reduction in PixInsight

NGC 891 -- Spiral Galaxy in Andromeda933 viewsProcesses with data from December 18, 2004 and November 17 2006. 5 hours 5 minutes actual, 7 hours 20 minutes effective exposure. Processed with Maxim DL, CCDStack, and Photoshop, using GradientXterminator. Luminance combined from clear, luminance, and RGB filters unbinned. Color combines binned and unbinned sub-exposures.

NGC 7331 @ f10736 viewsNGC 7331, Spiral Galaxy in Pegasus, shot at f10. No work of art, but indicative of the problem with f10 imaging.

NGC 4565 -- Spiral Galaxy in Coma Berenices565 viewsNGC 4565, originally imaged on May 14, 2005 and reprocessed on October 27, 2006. Flat / dark reduction performed in Maxim DL, sub-exposures combined in CCDStack, color combine and final processing in Photoshop

M51 -- The Whirlpool Galaxy982 viewsM51 -- The Whirlpool Galaxy in Canes Venatici, Maxim DL, CCDStack, Photoshop, Gradient Exterminator. Finally a close to acceptable processing of these data. The gradients were awful so the color is a bit strained, and I may have clipped the black level a little bit too.

M51 -- The Whirlpool Galaxy (Processing 1)608 viewsM51 -- The Whirlpool Galaxy in Canes Vanetici, processed in CCDSoft and Photoshop. This is one of my first images with the ST-10, and it is the original processing of the data. Insufficient exposure, but still the first!

M51 -- The Whirlpool Galaxy (Processing 2)689 viewsM51 -- The Whirlpool Galaxy in Canes Vanetici, processed in CCDSoft, CCDStack, and Photoshop using GradientXterminator. I reprocessed the image with better skills and tools and got a nicer result. Still not enough data, but better.
