Messier Gallery
This is a project I started back in 1986, shooting all 110 of the Messier list. Some images are old
film shots from my 16" Newtonian, cold camera film shots using a dry ice camera, others are
film shots with the Schmidt camera. Some are a digital mix. The newest images are CCD and others that
are too low to image well from Calgary have been sketched. There is something for everyone here!
Clicking on any of the thumbnails will bring up a larger image with full image details. For more
detailed information on Messier and his non-comet list, please visit the
Messier pages at SEDS.
