Photography has been one of the major gaps. CCD technology overwhelmed me when it became available, but I�ve been �dabbling� in it for a couple of years or so, and I�m beginning to learn my way around. <BR/><BR/>Your trip to New Mexico sounds like a fantastic way to spend a week!<BR/><BR/>I�ve never imaged NGC 281, but I have several images of IC1805 � yours is miles beyond what I�ve been able to do! Great shots.<BR/><BR/>Maynard Pittendreigh<BR/>www.pittendreigh.netMaynardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00943575803820644933noreply@blogger.com
