The photo of the M13 cluster was taken on September
11, 2002 using a 10" Dobsonian telescope with a Jerry Wilkenson f5.6 mirror and a StellaEX camera. This photo and others
of mine can be seen on John Shettle's website.

The photo below was taken with a Minolta Dimage S414
Digital camera on August 13, 2004 from my front yard looking towards the West at Sunset.
The above photo of Mars was taken at the Nanjemoy Creek
Observatory on November 2, 2005. Celestron 14" scope and Meade LPI camera.
The photo of Mars, on the right, was taken from my home
observatory. Celestron 9.25 scope and LPI camera.
The photo above was taken on the 5th of November, 2005.
I used a 10", F5.6 Dob, placed just outside of my front door, about 3 feet from the house and looking somewhat over the roof.
The image was not that steady. The Meade LPI camera was used along with a Nagler 3X Barlow to stack 106 photos in 78
seconds. Note that this is the only photo that has the South Pole placed in the "South Pole Up" position.
This is just about the same view of the planet that I had from the Nanjemoy Creek Observatory. See the photo above this
one, (it is upside down in relation to this photo) - the Nanjemoy Creek photo was processed somewhat different as far as color
was concerned.
