NGC891 from SKMC October 8, 2026
This is an edge-on unbarred spiral galaxy located roughly 30 million light-years away in the constellation Andromeda.
Barnard 150 - the Seahorse Nebula from Camp Highroad, Virginia
Barnard 150, also called the Seahorse Nebula, is a dark molecular cloud in the constellation Cepheus. It lies about 1,200 light-years away from Earth.
NGC6914 from the National Radio Quiet Zone in West Virginia
NGC 6914 is a complex and striking nebula group located about 6,000 light-years away in the constellation Cygnus. This photograph captures a larger region that contains several other objects, like the Propeller Nebula at bottom right, and a number of others.
This is the first light for Astro-Physics 110GTX telescope, an amazing refractor.
Venus from Smithsonian Udvar-Hazy Air and Space Museum
First light on Antlia Venus UV filter at the Smithsonian outreach event. Some cloud structure appears visible after processing.
Barnard 211 in Taurus Molecular Cloud
This is a structure in the Taurus Molecular Cloud, about 450 light years away in the Milky Way. It is the closest star nursery to Earth. It is my first dark nebula complex, and I imaged it from the Mojave Desert in California in just one night, while traveling.
The Seagull Nebula - IC2177
This nebula is located between the constellations of Monoceros and Canis Major. The "wings" are over 100 light years across.
Captured from the Mojave Desert on 12/28/2025 in about 1.5 hours before dawn, the "leftover time" from Barnard 211.
Jupiter near opposition January 21, 2026
This is the best image of 6, at 20ms shutter on ASI585MC on the 2800mm C11 with a 2.5 Powermate (5850mm effective FL). It was -15C (about 13F), but no wind.
