Hello again good people,
It's been a while! Hope all are well. Thought I'd say hello and publish an update. The New Mexico Skies Observatory has been fully operational since November 2010. As you'll see at http://www.billionsandbillions.com/ I have a terrific new partner and friend in Dave Raphael of http://www.astrofactors/. We've been sharing observing duties since December.
After much nail biting, the 10" OGS received a new pair of glasses in February, just as Hubble did those years back. The field is now flat and tack sharp and we're thrilled to be collecting ancient photons from galaxies far, far away. Please visit Billions and see my thanks to several friends who made it all happen.
I am working on a new series at IP4AP called S2N, covering the astro-image processing gamut from pre to post processing. Please have a peek at that, as well as the newly redesigned http://www.ip4ap.com/.
We've also established a facebook page and YouTube Channel for IP4AP.com
I had the privilege of bringing Atik CCD into the USA as their rep for 18 months, and I continue to use their cameras on the telescope. I'm grateful for the many friends and opportunities I've benefitted from in astro-imaging.
Presenting at NEAIC and for NOVAC, writing a book for Springer Press, consulting with Celestron, teaching via one-on-one sessions, processing, managing my wife's jewelry business http://www.chrizart.com/ , IOW keeping busy!
Well better run! Thanks for catching up with me here. Check the sites mentioned for updates and let us know how we can help you realize your full potential as an astro-imager!
Best, Warren Keller
