FaintFuzzies.com – Alvin Huey
The name of this website was inspired by my passion for observing very faint deep sky objects under dark skies over the last 20+ years. They appear as Faint Fuzzies even in my large telescopes, such as my 20″ obsession for observing the objects and both 8″ Edge HD & Esprint 80 ED for observing or astrophotography too.
This is some collection of observing guides I have developed for the serious deep sky observer from the Deep Sky Observing guides below.
