Irvington Observatory

All of these photos except M101 and M 82 were taken with a modified cassegrain telescope produced by the Vixen corporation, namely the VMC 260.  Each were composed of LRGB data in varying degrees but on average approximately 4 hours of such.  M 101 and M 82 were taken with a wider field of view telescope that is appreciably faster than the VMC, the Takahashi corporations FS 102 apochromatic refractor in a similar fashion.  All images were performed using SBIG STL 4020 TEC CCD camera.
