I'm glad my pictures have made you want to give it a try. The reason for the #8 yellow filter is because I'm shooting through an achromatic refractor and was experimenting with reducing chromatic aberration. The yellow filter seems to have helped with the added benefit of enhancing a little detail. I have a Baader Semi APO filter coming this week and look forward to taking some images with it installed. I understand that it's supposed to produce a truer color. It'll be interesting to see the comparison. -
Good article. Definitely worth taking the time to read.

Since I'm just starting out, I found this topic quite useful. I've printed out the maps here: http://www.atmob.org/library/member/skymaps_jsmall.html I plan to focus on the Messier list first by picking one constellation at a time for careful study. Now, if I could only get rid of all this rain!!!
