M45

Date:             September 27, 2000            

Location:       Boon Michigan   

Equipment:   4" f6 refractor, G11, Taurus Tracker, St4  

Conditions:    Dark and clear 

Film:              Kodak Ektapress PJ400     

Exposure:      1 @ 60 minutes, 2 @ 45 minutes.  Adjusted in Photoshop

Comments:   I actually took only the 60 minute exposure at Boon.  Then I stacked it with the two 45 minute exposures that I took in Tucson last spring.  I am going to continue to mess with the processing on this to attempt to bring out more of the nebula.
