The following images were all taken with the combination of a 12" Meade LX200 and 80mm Orion ED80T CF telescopes.
For narrow field the 80mm is used for guiding and the images are taken with the 12" LX200, usually with an f/6.3 focal reducer.
For wide field, the reverse is used, the 12" LX200 is used for guiding and the images are taken through the 80mm.
For planetary imaging, no guiding is used.

The top two were taken with a Starlight Express MX7C CCD camera.
On 8/17/2009 I switched to a new Orion Starshoot Pro V2 CCD camera.
For planetary imaging I am starting to use an ImagingSource DBK 31AF03.AS Firewire camera.
 

   This is an image of M13 (Hercules Globular Cluster).
The image was taken with a Meade f/3.3 focal reducer. Image taken July 2003 in South Grafton. This is a stack of an unrecorded number of 10 second exposures.

  After a 5 year hiatus from imaging, I have added a new image. I no longer use Star 2000 for guiding. I now use an 80mm guidescope and an Orion Starshoot Autoguider.

This is an image of M27 (Dumbell Nebula). Image taken with Meade f/3.3 focal reducer, IR block filter and Parks ALP filter.
This is a stack of nine 10 minute exposures.

  *First Light Image with Orion StarShoot Pro camera and Skyshed POD.* 8/17/2009

This is M16 (Eagle Nebula). Image taken with a Meade f/3.3 focal reducer.
This is a stack of twenty four 5 minute exposures for a total of 2 hours exposure.
Weather conditions were very humid, 65+ degree dew point. 

 

*First Light Image with an ImagingSource DBK 31AF03.AS Firewire camera on  9/2/2009.

Image of Jupiter taken under mediocre seeing conditions. I suspected the scope was not well collimated as focus was hard to achieve. Collimation was later verified to be poor and was adjusted with the assistance of  CCD inspector from CCDWare.  Hopefully better images to come...

 

Image of Saturn taken under poor seeing conditions on 6/4/2011. Weather conditions this spring during opposition have been poor in Massachusetts

Exposure 1/3 second at f/15 with a stack of 611 exposures with Registax.

 

Orion StarShoot Pro camera and Skyshed POD.

This is M51 (Whirlpool Galaxy). Image taken with a Meade f/6.3 focal reducer.
This is a stack eleven 10 minute exposures for a total of 110 minutes exposure.
Image taken 7/3/2010.

 
 

Orion StarShoot Pro camera and Skyshed POD.

This is M20 (Trifid Nebula). Image taken with a Meade f/6.3 focal reducer.
This is a stack eleven 8 minute exposures for a total of 80 minutes exposure.
Image taken 8/7/2010. 

 
  This is my first attempt at wide field imaging.

This is M45 (Pleiades). Image taken with an 80mm f/6 Orion ED80T CF APO refractor. Astro-Tech Field Flattener and Astromomik CLS filter.

This is a stack of twenty five 5 minute exposures. Image taken on 12/26/2011.
  This is M42 (Orion Nebula) and NGC 1977 (Running Man Nebula). Image taken with an 80mm f/6 Orion ED80T CF APO refractor. Astro-Tech Field Flattener and Astromomik CLS filter.

This is a stack of sixteen five 5 minute exposures combined with ten 20 second exposures for the bright core region of M42. Image taken on 12/1/2011 and 12/26/2011
