09/30/2006 Televue at Starizona and Unexpected Clear Skies
Here's a picture of the Televue NP127is, a beautiful big refractor that I would love own. Televue sent a rep to demo their products at Starizona today, this picture shows the rep plus Dean, the owner of Starizona, and Larry. The little TV60is is also on the same mount, a neat but very tiny little imaging refractor. The setup is in front of Dean's new shop.
My original plan for this evening was to head out to the field for a night under darker skies in Southern AZ. Unfortunately, around 1:00 this afternoon it was so cloudy that we decided to call it off. Bad choice, because it's actually quite clear out tonight!
I've been imaging every night for the past week in my backyard, except for last night. Mostly I have been gathering photometry data for RX Andromeda 0058+40, but tonight I've decided to play a bit so I'm shooting The Triangulum Galaxy, M33.
I thought I had solved my spacing dilemna but tonight it seems I am back to elongated starts at the corners. What a challenge this has turned out to be!
