Often I donate my Friday evenings to teach telescope making at the Chabot Science Center. Gert Gottschalk often shows up to participate, and he reminded me that he has a
very nice webpage of his own, which has many nice astrophotos, done with film, digital cameras and CCD imaging. Take a browse, they are quite nice.

He does most of his imaging with a 13″ f/4 on a German equatorial mount (of course!) from the balcony of his apartment. He’s been getting pretty good at this stuff, he recently has been imaging objects near 20th magnitude. Pretty darned cool.
