NGC 3423 is a nice, but rarely imaged, face on, multi-armed, blue spiral in Sextans. NED classes it as SA(s)cd while the NGC project says Sc. It is full of...

IC 749 and 750 are a rather close pair of galaxies. NGC 751 and 752 are a pair of galaxies possibly ten times further away. All are quite interesting. ...

I originally did this one in mono in 2006 and got some poor color data in 2008. Not having proper software mating the two was a nightmare as I'd made...

When I returned from Irish setdancing last Thursday the sky was clear. As the moon was still quite bright (around 70% illuminated) I wanted to do narrowband...

NGC 4108 is a triple galaxy system in Draco about 120 million light-years distant. It actually is a group of 4 galaxies, one is not an NGC galaxy so doesn't...

This comet has been an impossible target for me living in the woods and my nearly constant clouds. It is low in the east deep in my neighbor's trees. It...

I originally imaged Nova Delphini 2013 on August 29. I've tried several time since to reimage it to see if it changed but the weather has made a mess of all...

KPG 118 is a pair of galaxies, NGC 2274 and NGC 2275. A note at NED says of this pair "The ASC and NED agree assigning type E to this galaxy (NGC 2274)....

NGC 4244, sometimes called the Silver Needle Galaxy, is a nearby edge on spiral in Canes Venatici. It is classed as SA(s)cd: with HII emission. The blue...

During my visit to country skies Abell 74 sunk too low for further imaging, so I had to decide on an object for the remaining nearly two hours till dawn. NGC...

During my recent visit to country skies I was waiting for dawn to get dark enough to start imaging when it occured to me that I could pass some time by...

NGC 2715 could have made Arp's atlas of peculiar galaxies under the classification of one heavy arm. It is likely related to Arp 225 located about 40 arc...

NGC 2282/IC 2172 is a reflection nebula with an embedded star cluster seen mostly in infrared light. Actually SIMBAD classifies it as a reflection nebula,...

The Abell Galaxy Cluster is located in Orion, not a constellation you'd look to for galaxy clusters. Some claim it looks like the constellation of Orion...

NGC 2336 is a beautiful barred spiral 10 degrees from the north celestial pole in Camelopardalis about 100 million light-years from us. It has many nice...

Trying again with ASTRO: in the header. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Sometimes an image turns out very differently than you expect. This certainly is one of those. I...

GK Persei is also known as Nova Persei 1901. While supernova can create remnants so can nova. This nova remnant is located only 470 parsecs away from us...

The Sun and a few sunspots the afternoon of Thursday, September 26, 2013. With a Baader solar filter on a C8.

NGC 317 is a pair of interacting galaxies a bit under 4 degrees from the center of the far more famous and nearby galaxy, M31 in Andromeda. The pair is...
