Most images were either taken remotely using SLOOH telescopes or
were taken by myself at my observatory in Sharon GA using an EAA
setup. A few older images used other remote telescopes; their
details are listed with those images. All images should be oriented North up, East left.
The primary scopes used are shown below.
