My first mosaic image.

4 images merged into one and colorized in Photoshop

Let the Sunshine.

I have sadly neglected this blog and it is high time we shed some light into the darkness so here are a few of my Solar images I been learning to do.

My Google+ Astronomy site and some Solar images.

New year new equipment

Well I have had an extremely slow start this year but all is settling down and I have finally ordered a Lunt 80mm Solar scope, a White Light Wedge for my new Explorer Scientific 80mm scope for white light imaging. I am still deciding on which camera to get for this new aspect of my hobby.

     I have had a hard time starting this year between the weather, health and technical issues but things are slowly coming together. I will post images soon of new equipment.

Wow have I been slacking, I have many new images to share including something new, Images using a Starlight Xpress LodeStar guide camera and a delightful 3rd party software called LodestarLive made I  believe by Paul Shears I will post the new images over the next few days after I go through them and select my favorites.

Making a come back.

Well Life, and myself got in the way of setting up and imaging but now I am attempting as weather permits, to get back out and image. I went to my friend Andy's home to set up. Andy setup the scope while I tried to sort out the Laptop and software by time we got things going only Mars was available due to incoming clouds. This is the first light using the new Mallincam Extreme.

Well the Mallincam HyperPlus has been shipped to Rock Mallin and upgraded to a Extreme and is on its way back as I type this. so with luck I will be broadcasting on NSN again soon.

Away for awhile.

I just wanted to apologies for being away and for the fact I will be away a bit longer.
2.5 weeks ago My Father passed away and while we were burying him my middle Brother who was in ICU also passed away so life is in turmoil at this time. Once things and emotions settle down a bit more I will return and hopefully will have weather good enough to do some more imaging.
Thank you all for your patience and understanding.

May your skies be dark and your visions bright.
