Maine
Skies Astronomy
This
website contains images of objects in the night sky that were taken
from my back yard in Standish, Maine using a 6" Astro-Physics telescope
and a cooled SBIG CCD camera. I
have enjoyed the hobby of astronomy for several years now and have been
learning to take images of very distant, tiny and faint
objects.
The
quality of my images continues to improve with experience, some of my
favorite ones are the Triangalum Galaxy, Crescent Nebula and Jupiter.
My newest images are the Rosette Nebula,
NGC891, M34,
IC410,
IC405, the
Andromeda Galaxy , M74
and the Veil Nebula.
