I posted in the Bright challenge early, and my Crater Aristoteles is about as good as I can do. I wouldn’t be surprised if someone is holding the winning bright submission for the last day, I’ve seen it happen before, but at the end of the day, we still decide who wins. I’m OK with that.
My pet peeve is mega dollar cameras in the beginners contests… They are hard to top with a $400 CCD.
Like the lead in to the forum says… “Typical beginning imaging equipment will include webcams, the Meade DSI and other low cost imagers.”
My two cents worth… Richard
