August 5

Today was another good day in the RIT astronomical imaging department. I re-hastromed all my galaxies so that the optical were sized to the UV images, not the other way around. Then I was able to use the code that Brad developed to create surface brightness profiles of all my galaxies. The code was big and complicated and took some adjustments quite often, but it actually made the work a lot easier than it would have been to do it by hand. Anyway, that took the entire day, but it was good stuff. Hopefully I will have time to post the JPEGs of my histograms from todays work on Flickr before the afternoon meeting, but if not, they will be up tomorrow, I promise, I hope. If it wasn't raining outside, and my car wasn't parked in the farthest parking lot because of the construction, I would probably be in an excellent mood, but oh well, guess you can't always get what you want.
