This book provides a ready resource on the use of the following filters, among others, for observational astronomy or for imaging: Light pollution filters Planetary filters Solar filters Neutral density filters for Moon observation Deep-sky filters, for such objects as galaxies, nebulae, and more Deep-sky objects can be imaged in much greater detail than was possible many years ago. Amateur astronomers can take photographs that rival those of professional observatories! The ability to do this has been brought about by the revolution in CCD cameras and improved filters. The book pinpoints which astronomical objects are best observed with which filters. Post-processing (using Photoshop) is also discussed, since it is helpful in further improving filtered astro images. The last part of the book is an observational guide to 100 deep sky objects that benefit from the use of filters ? all personally observed by the author ? with notes on the filters used (or potentially of use) in their observation and imaging. There are also notes on their celestial coordinates, magnitudes, and other pertinent information. 410 0$aThe Patrick Moore Practical Astronomy Series,$x1431-9756 606 $aObservations, Astronomical 606 $aAstronomy?Observations 606 $aAstronomy 606 $aSignal processing 606 $aImage processing 606 $aSpeech processing systems 606 $aOptics 606 $aElectrodynamics 606 $aAstronomy, Observations and Techniques$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22014 606 $aPopular Science in Astronomy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Q11009 606 $aSignal, Image and Speech Processing$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T24051 606 $aClassical Electrodynamics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21070 608 $aPopular works.$2fast 615 0$aObservations, Astronomical. 615 0$aAstronomy?Observations. 615 0$aAstronomy. 615 0$aSignal processing. 615 0$aImage processing. 615 0$aSpeech processing systems. 615 0$aOptics. 615 0$aElectrodynamics. 615 14$aAstronomy, Observations and Techniques. 615 24$aPopular Science in Astronomy. 615 24$aSignal, Image and Speech Processing. 615 24$aClassical Electrodynamics. 676 $a520.72/4 676 $a522.2 700 $aGriffiths$b Martin$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0144572 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300425303321 996 $aChoosing and Using Astronomical Filters$91773101 997 $aUNINA
