Hey Tim!

great photos! I would like to use a simmilar equipment (FS102NSV+350D) I want to ask if you can send me a few photos with full resolution to my email? What is your experience is the full field of view free of coma with the 10D (without the dedicated reductor)?

Nice images! Most people don't understand how much patience it takes to consistantly get good images. I do astrophotography too with a SBIG ST237 & Nikon D100. Your M33 shot is very good and the Orion shot also stands out. The planet shots are also very good.

Tim these are great images. I don't think most people realize how much time and patience and talent it takes to do these. Nice work! I voted for your gallery.

One of the finest, if not THE finest, examples of digital camera astrophotography. Lunar shots alone are some of the finest I've seen regardless of method obtained. I'm impressed.
