NGC 4725


My friend Sheldon has an observatory in Illinois where I take pictures. Here is a shot of a galaxy taken during this past year.

Sheldon took it with a 14" newtonian and a SBIG camera using CCD Soft. He is one of the country's best deep sky astrophotographer. I'm still working towards this. Check out the SBIG web page and see what is being done by amateurs. You will be blown away.

Here is Sheldon's web page. CCD's have raised the bar on the quality of images that we can take.
