This picture of the Dumbbell Nebula M27 was obtained by Rob Conway. He reports:

"I took this shot on 03/20/94 with my 10" Meade LX200. I used Ektar 1000 color print film for the 45 minute guided exposure at f6. No filter was used. Guiding was via a Giant Easy Guider -w- 9mm illuminated reticle eyepiece. The resulting negative was processed at a one hour photo store, then scanned onto a kodak Photo CD."
