Default Recent images from Down Under
Haven't posted for a while but thought some of you guys might like to see a few images I have managed to squeeze in around weather and life

The following link goes to my "recent images" album which displays the thumbnail images from newest at top left then older as you read left to right.

The most recent are the Tarantula, NGC 253, NGC 6188 and the Helix.

To see the highest resolution version of each image scroll down to the bottom of the image credits and select "original" size from the "other sizes" menu.

Enjoy!

Mike

I cropped 29 pixels off the right edge of NGC 6188 LHaRGB, reducing the image to 1,800 by 1,200. That will allow for easy resizing if I use it again. In saving it, my graphics program also reduced the file size from 1.42 Mb to 462 Kb. I'll have to look up the object to find out what it is.
