The following person needs some help to get some star images for his
class. It is not possible for me to help him. Maybe someone on this list
who lives in the Phoenix area can. You can gather from the messages below
what he needs and his email address is also below.

Yes, please.

 The stars that my professor
 wants me to take pictures are, are the following: Aldebaran,
 Betelgeuse, Bellatrix, Rigel, Saiph, Capella, Sirius, Polaris, Alkaid,
 Mizar, and Dubhe.

 I dont think it would matter
 who took the pictures, I just need to upload them into photoshop - do
 the B minus G values and plot them according to their actual
 temperature vs color.

 I wish it were simple.ou

 Thank you for your help.

 Also, if they could get me the images at least by Monday morning -- that
 would be phenomenal!

 Storm,
 Unfortunately, I am not in a position to do any of this kind of astronomy
 now. If you wish, I could forward your message to a discussion group
 called Az-Observing. Many of the members live in Phoenix. There are many
 amateurs in that group who could easily get the stars for you. Would you
 like me to forward your request to the group?

 Stan,

 First of all, I know this is last minute, but I am hoping you can help
 me
 out. I am currently in Astronomy 114 Lab at Glendale Community College.
 For my lab project - which is due May 5th, I am supposed to take
 pictures
 of specific stars (11 of them) and upload them into photoshop, then get
 their RGB values and then place them in accordance of their temperature
 to
 their color.

 I was hoping you could help me out.

 I live in Phoenix, and I see that you do too. If it would not be of
 trouble, I was wondering if you could take the pictures for me and
 either
 email them to me or something?

 I tried on my own, even bought a camera and I can't figure out how to
 take
 pictures of stars using my camera. It is very frustrating. That, and I
 work all weekend and have another project to get done before next week
 as
 well.

 If there is anything that I can do for you - financially or what, please
 let me know. I work at Dominos and could get you anything you would
 like.

 Like I said, I understand this is kind of late notice, but I am hoping
 and
 praying you can help me. If not, do you know of anyone that can help?

 Thank you.

 I look forward to hearing from you.

 -Storm Schaudt
