Astronomy Movies - Don Taylor
| I shot the images for these movies with a Canon 10D at the Neal site on 08.14.2004. | ||
| This is the Scorpius area of the sky. The Lagoon Nebula, M8, is high and to the left in Movie1 and just to the right of center in Movie 2 (beginning of each movie). | ||
| The conditions were not the best. You will notice the clouds as well as the sky glow in the lower right corner of each movie. | ||
| Click one of the links below to view the movie. They should play automatically in your browser provided you have the MS media player installed. Otherwise you can click the link on the right and download the .WMV file to your computer. | ||
| Movie 1 - Smaller File - 201KB - Very Cloudy - High Compression - Poor Image Quality | Download |
| Movie 2 - Smaller File - 517KB - Less Cloudy - High Compression - Poor Image Quality | Download |
| Keep in mind that it may take a minute or 2 (more like 15 seconds with broadband) for the movies to play. |
