Overview

I have been a visual observer and have only recently decided to try astrophotography.  Early last year I purchased a Mallincam Universe CCD camera to use with my Obsession telescope.  The Obsession has a tracking system, but is designed for visual observing.  The Mallincam has capability for real-time observation on a computer screen and is also a full-fledged color CCD camera.  I plan to discuss my setup and show how I acquire images.  I will also show how I use Pixinsight to process the results.
