These images were all taken with the SBIG STV Guider/Imaging CCD. The STV is limited as an imager, but is so easy and fun to use, that knocking out a reasonable representation of all of these famous subjects can be accomplished pretty quickly. I have always wanted to create a photographic album of the "Messier Objects", the STV is making this project, however limited, a reality in very short order. Please visit again, to see the album fill out.
