Biography
I was born in Ashland, OH in 1953, moved to Ojai
California in 1961 and attended school there. I worked in photo labs for
most of my adult life and that is how I met Tony. We married in 1990. I
went to nursing school and received my RN license which I keep current but
have not used for several years. After moving to Northern California in 2000, I have
become enthralled with creating quilts of all colors and sizes to express
my creative side.
Astrophotography publications
editor's note
Daphne
and Tony's work has been published is so many magazines and books that
they stopped keeping track of them. Tony believes you are only as good as
your last photograph and
continually strives for the best that is possible.
Observing site
Home observatory at Foresthill,
California, USA
Astronomical Equipment
We have used many telescopes
throughout our photographic years which have included a Celestron 14" SCT
mounted on a 12 Schaefer mount, 4", 5", 6", and 7" Astro-Physics
refractors, and a 12.5" f/7 Newtonian on the 12" Schaefer mount, a William
Optics 4" refractor mounted on a MI250 mount and a Stellarvue 6" f/7.9
refractor on a AP1200 GOTO mount. Currently, we are using a 14.5" f/8 RCOS
Classical Cassegrain on an Astro-Physics 1200 GTO Mount with the SBIG
STL-11k imaging camera. Extreme wide-field imaging is done using a Canon
20DA.
