White light Solar image by Dave McCracken of Lincoln Astronomical Society taken on 18th June 2015.
He took this image with a Vixen 110 on a Vixen GP GEM in white light and then compared it to an image from space weather - the two main groups 2371 left and 2367 below centre seem to have been captured well. He is not sure if the mottling is from the DSLR camera or solar granulation. |

Geminid trails by Graham Winstanley of Lincoln Astronomical Society.
Taken on Saturday morning 14th December 2013
They were taken with a Canon 1100D at ISO 3200, 30s unguided exposures with zoom at 24mm. The bright star near the centre of the frame is Regulus in Leo. The meteors were all around magnitude -2 and typically for Geminids there is no sign of any terminal flash that is common with the Perseids.
The images were taken as RAW files and then converted to Jpeg and compressed. |

NGC891 is located about 30,000,000 Light Years away in the constellation of Andromeda.
It's Magnitude +12.14, a Barred Spiral, probably very similar to our own Milky Way Galaxy and forms part of the NGC1023 Supercluster known as the Local Group. It was first observed by Herschel in October 1784.

M57 is about 2.3K Light Years away in the constellation of Lyra and known as the 'Ring Nebula'.
It's a Planetary Nebula, formed from an expanding shell of glowing ironised gas. This happens to Red Giant Stars towards the end of their life when the outer layers of the star are ejected in pulses into interstellar space. The result is the magnificent ring shape seen here.
