Sven Kohle's and Till Credner's Messier Object images
Sven Kohle and
Till Credner
of the university of Bonn, Germany, have
collected
beautiful astrophotos which they have obtained at several observatories:
The Sternwarte Hoher List, the Calar Alto Observatory, the ESO La Silla.
They made both 3-color composits of images obtained with a 2048x2048 CCD
camera, and color film pictures.
Their images are copyrighted by the authors. They may be used for private and
non-profit educational purpose if the authorship and copyright is acknowledged.
