I image from Lookum observatory in Munising Mi., just a couple of miles from Lake Superior. 
  
Equipment includes a Celestron C11 with C90 piggyback, custom made flip-mirror w/ Lumicon reticle eyepiece, a Van Slyke Engineering filter slot adapter and an Astrovid 2000 CCD video camera. 
  
I download directly via a Snappy vs 3.0 to computer, then later process with Adobe Photoshop IV for combining & handling images and Astroart's low pass, and unsharp mask filters for the most part.
