<< Hi Everyone,

Here is an 80 minute exposure of the M84/86 region taken with my
5" refractor from Henry Coe on April . This is different from most
of my other images as I wasn't going for a pretty picture. Instead I
wanted to see how "deep" I could get with my little refractor.

Pretty impressive!

I hope you don`t mind if I enter your image into my data base where I`ll
use it as a standard for my own investigations.

As of Feb this year I've been experimenting with CCD imaging using a
little C8 and a St7 camera (non-antiblooming). So far my data base contains
between 400 and 500 images that I have obtained of different objects. They
are mostly raw data taken for the science value but some certainly are
beautiful, as least by my standards.

Thanks for sharing the image!

Clear Skies!
