Grand Spiral Galaxy NGC7424 thumbnail
NGC7424 is a large barred spiral galaxy with well defined arms, similar to the Milky Way. It is around 38 million light years away.

Messier 2 Globula Cluster thumbnail
55,000 light years away, Messier 2 (M2) is one of the largest known globular clusters.

Planetary Nebula IC5148 thumbnail
A glowing shell of ionized gas ejected from a dying star, IC5148 is at the end of its life, shedding its outer layers and contracting from a red giant to a white dwarf.

Arp 93 Colliding Galaxies NGC7284 and NGC7285 thumbnail
210 million light years away, a barred spiral galaxy NGC 7284 is colliding with a lenticular galaxy NGC 7285, throwing off massive tidal tails.

Spiral Galaxy NGC7184 thumbnail
NGC 7184 is a barred spiral galaxy 114 million light years from Earth.

Barred Spiral Galaxy IC5092 thumbnail

Ringed Galaxy NGC 7020 thumbnail
The southern galaxy NGC 7020 presents an unusual morphology: it includes a very regular outer ring which is completely detached and which envelops an inner ring/lens zone with a hexagon surrounding an X shape.

Animation of Processing Data for NGC6935 and NGC6937 thumbnail
Often I like to see how an image is processed from start to finished. Presented in this animation are the main processing steps in sequence from my image of spiral galaxies NGC6935 and NGC6937

Spiral Galaxies NGC6935 and NGC6937 thumbnail
NGC6935 and NGC6937 are two differing spiral galaxies that appear close to each other, though they are not gravitationally bound

Mars is Still Hazy thumbnail
Mars is currently at it's closest to Earth since 2003, and appears as a brilliant red star in the sky. Unfortunately it is also suffering from a global dust storm, slowly abating.

Spiral Galaxy NGC6902 and Friends thumbnail
NGC 6902 is a spiral galaxy 33 million light years away in the Sagittarius constellation. It has a very bright center, with grand spiral arms extending out much further than the local light pollution allowed me to see.
