Totality - a few seconds after Second Contact637 viewsAfter the eclipse went total, I had to try several different exposure settings to get it right - 1/2 second seemed to work best.

M45 - The Pleiades637 viewsOpen star cluster in the constellation Taurus. Nearest Messier object to Earth (444 light-years).

Two minutes after Third Contact636 viewsC3 + 2 min 16 sec

NGC 7009 - The Saturn Nebula635 viewsA planetary nebula in the constellation Aquarius, at a distance of about 5000 light-years, with a superficial resemblance to the planet Saturn. This image does not do it justice, because a much larger telescope is required to resolve the complex internal structure of the nebula.

M1 - The Crab Nebula, narrowband version635 viewsA Hubble palette rendition of the remnant of the supernova seen by Chinese astronomers in 1054 CE.

NGC 253 - The Silver Dollar Galaxy635 viewsSpiral galaxy in the constellation Sculptor.

Sharpless2-27 - The Zeta Ophiuchi Nebula634 viewsLarge but very faint emission nebula centered on the star Zeta Ophiuchi. Difficult to image because of the brightness of the star relative to the faintness of the nebula..

Corona Effects633 viewsSome trick of post-capture processing gave the corona a greenish ring. Don't ask me how that happened.

First Contact632 viewsVenus takes a tiny nibble out of the Sun's disk just past the 5 o'clock position.

Post-Totality 2632 viewsThe Moon is rising, the Sun is setting. How will this end?

M97 - The Owl Nebula632 viewsPlanetary nebula in the constellation Ursa Major, 2030 light-years distance from Earth and about 8000 years old. The blurred appearance results from the fact that it consists of several overlapping shells of gas. The shells are not entirely concentric, but form a barrel-like structure which gives rise to the owl-like appearance.

IC 1848 - The Soul Nebula629 viewsAn emission nebula in Cassiopeia, eastern neighbor of the Heart Nebula, IC 1805. About 6,500 light-years away, it spans 100 light-years, and is too big at that distance to fit into my telescope's field of view, so only part of it is seen here.
