| This photo was from a series of my very first
batch on my first night with with my Nikon Coolpix 990 digital camera
coupled to a 20mm Plosll eyepiece and my brand-spanking-new f/15 7" LX-50
Meade Maksutov-Cassegrain Telescope. Jupiter was my first target ever
through my new telescope! This image was processed with Corel Photopaint 9 using the Gaussian blur, brightness and contrast. |
