I'm an amateur astrophotographer and binocular-gazer. Astrophotography is from my Unistellar Odyssey and processed in PixInsight.
Our moon is looking incredible tonight 🌙 #moonhour

M7 Ptolemy Cluster
Finally going through my Summer cluster captures. M7 is a beautiful open cluster viewable through a pair of binoculars 🔭 #astrophotography #M7

M31 Andromeda Galaxy
Got my final hours on M31 for the season. Crossing my fingers I can record a comet finally with my Odyssey 🔭 #astrophotography #M31

My favorite landscape photo from my vacation in O'ahu last week. The skies were very cloudy every morning except on this final day 🌅 #sunrise #beach #photography #aloha #kahalabeach #oahu #hawaii 🤙

The Sun squeezed out some residual rain from the skies after a weekend of monsoon storms 🌦 #landscape #photography

From my hike this morning 🌥 #sunrise #photography

M31 Andromeda Galaxy
Checking in on M31 at 16 hours integration. When the skies clear I'm hoping to start capturing M33 for as much time. #astrophotography #M31

Moments before the Sun rose over storm clouds today. #sunrise #photography

M31 Andromeda Galaxy
My first time shooting M31 after missing it last year. I'll be recording its satellite galaxies M110-M32 this season also. 🔭 #astrophotography #M31

M8 Lagoon Nebula
I targeted M8 a couple more nights last week so I could give my favorite nebula a final farewell 🔭 #astrophotography #M8

NGC1232 Galaxy
Working on ngc5907 had me in the mood to reprocess a grand design spiral from last Spring. #astrophotography #ngc1232
August 24, 2025 at 5:21 PM
NGC5907 Galaxy
This edge-on galaxy has a beautiful halo to process, thanks to its stellar streams visible at longer exposures. 🔭 #astrophotography #ngc5907

M2 Star Cluster
One of the biggest and oldest globular clusters in our galaxy at about 13 billion years old 🫨 🔭 #astrophotography #M2
August 22, 2025 at 2:23 AM
NGC6826 Blinking Nebula
My final planetary nebula in this series. I'm looking forward to some galaxy and cluster projects to finish the month with. 🔭 #astrophotography #ngc6826

NGC6543 Cat's Eye Nebula
A planetary nebula 3x further away than the Dumbbell. Also galaxy NGC6552 making an appearance to the right. 🔭 #astrophotography #ngc6543
August 19, 2025 at 4:33 PM
M57 Ring Nebula
Another planetary nebula, about twice the distance from us compared to the Dumbbell Nebula. 🔭 #astrophotography #M57
August 17, 2025 at 3:40 PM
M27 Dumbbell Nebula
A vibrant planetary nebula big enough to view through binoculars 🔭 #astrophotography #M27
August 16, 2025 at 7:19 PM
Massive lightning storm going on tonight. #Monsoon

M22 Globular Star Cluster
Almost forgot this cluster from my Teapot Collection. It's definitely worth trying to see with binoculars a month ago. 🔭 #astrophotography #M22
August 12, 2025 at 1:17 AM
M20 Trifid Nebula
Rounding out the Teapot Collection from my last batch of nebula targets. Current targets are Dumbbell-Iris and the skies are projected clear 🕺 🔭 #astrophotography #M20

M16 Eagle Nebula
Kind of disappointed with only 2 hours of capture time over the entire 2 months this was out, but I'm happy with my final edit. 🔭 #astrophotography #M16

The Moon
I love seeing the Moon's highlights during the late waxing gibbous phase 🌔 🔭 #moonhour #moon

The Sun
Will there be an X flare in the coming days... 🫣 It's fun photographing lead-ups to potential big ones 🔭 #Sun #SolarPhotography

M8 Lagoon Nebula
I think I'll finish with M8 on this edit for the season 🔭 #astrophotography #M8
