Planets

I have done very little in the way of planetary imaging over the years. Most of my planetary observations have been visual. In the early days, film photography of planets was not very rewarding due to atmospheric bluring during the relatively long exposures required. Since aquiring a CCD I have tried a little planetary imaging, however the problem has always been the lack of time because of other imaging projects. More recently, I have obtained an Imaging Source DBK video CCD camera which has been fun to play with for planetary imaging.

Below are some of the planetary images I have obtained, both film and CCD.
