Images in this gallery were shot using a QHY9M and Santa Barbara Instruments Group (SBIG) ST-2000XM astronomical camera attached to various telescopes. I sold my LX200 in May of 2008 and bought an Orion Atlas EQ-G.

What a wonderfull and great set of images. I've always been facinated with the cosmos, and stumbled across your images, brings such a sense of wonder to me. Wouldn't it be interesting to know who and what exists within those galaxies. We don't even know what exists in our own solar system let alone when looking at an entire galaxy 100,000 light years across.
