Notes: |
This object is a little small to show good detail at 1000mm focal length. I tried re-sampling the image to double the size, but I though it better to keep the same image scale / field of view for most of the images ... to better compare the actual angular sizes of the various objects as imaged with the 8" f5 Newtonian.
