Happy New Year, everyone:
During the stretch of poor weather, I tried squeezing in imaging time here at home but with limited success. To keep my processing skills sharp, and to improve them, I've searched the Internet for image data to download. Furthermore, I am always looking for ways to share my successes and failures. I have a blog and several websites, but I never tried making videos. I opened an account at Rumble, a competitor of YouTube, and started making them. They've grown more sophisticated, and are beginning to get noticed. I still have more image data from my little refractor but I'll soon run out. That is when I decided to look for outside sources of data. Someone pointed me to Insight Observatory. Twenty-four hours ago, I released a new video. It has gotten a lot of attention:

I would love to do something similar for RoboScopes, but I need data. If anyone would like to donate their light frames, I'll have a go at it. Hopefully the calibrations are still available. I have more experience in LRGB and Narrowband, but not so much with OSC. I can't offer you any money for the data, but as my channel grows, I see no reason why we can't enter a profit-sharing agreement unless authorities prohibit it.
Thanks,
Brian
