NGC 5953 is a seemingly interactive but very distant pair of Slightly irregular galaxies
These galaxies are close to photographic magnitude and have been enlarged to make them more visual. These very small galaxies are great fun to image but difficult to get proper color images of.

	NGC 6888-The Crescent Nebula is thought to be a super Nova remnant that is still expanding.
This object is quite large for a C14 at f3.3 and is very dim. I can be seen telescopically on a very clear night.

	Sunspot-Reversal
This is a reversal of the above image done in CCDSoft. Note how the detail is more evident in the reversal and you can see that this is a prominance not a depression as traditional theory suggests.

	M33-The Pinwheel Galaxy (second image)
This image was exactly twice as long as the other example of m33. It was interesting to note that the colors came out lighter with the longer exposure. This was also done with the Optec Filter bar and processed in CCDsoft and Photoshop.
