Amateur Astrophotography and CCD Image LinksThis is an expanding collection of links to CCD images and astrophotos obtained with equipment (more or less) in common use by amateur astronomers. I hope this site will promote a sense of "community" among those of us who are interested in observing and recording the night sky. Enjoy! |

Dark Light ImageryMy CCD camera of choice is a PixCel 237 manufactured for Celestron by SBIG. It is coupled to a Celestron Celestar Fastar compatible 8 inch Schmidt Cassegrain telescope. This instrument allows very wide field views of the heavens when used with the PixCel 237. |

Carpe Noctum AstroimagingHello everyone. I have only been into "serious" amateur astronomy since late September, 1998, but have really been having a blast. I currently have a Celestron Ultima 2000 (8" SCT) with Fastar Optics allowing either f/10 or f/1.95. I am imaging using a PixCel 237 CCD (manufactured for Celestron by Santa Barbara Instrument Group) which yields images upwards of 640 x 480. All equipment purchased from Starizona in Tucson (Thanks for all your help, Dean.). I image from my backyard in Tucson, Arizona using polar alignment via a wedge. The nights here are almost always perfect (which is why we have so many observatories in and around Tucson). |
Ed Grafton's CCD Astro-imaging PageThis page is intended to show what can be done by anyone in their backyard with a telescope and CCD camera. Coments are invited |
CCD AstronomyThere are links, how to pages, photographs, much more. Comments, submissions, and corrections are always welcome |
Dave's Amateur Astronomy PageThis web page is here to show people what I'm up to with my telescope. I still consider myself a beginner in the hobby, so I'd appreciate any feedback on the information I'm presenting here. |
Pin's Astronomy PageThis webpage is designed to share my experience in backyard astronomy, in particular, CCD imaging with PixCel 237 and C8 Deluxe. I hope it will help for people who are thinking about getting into CCD imaging, but are not sure what to expect. I got my first pair of binoculars and a telescope in 1997, so I'm pretty much a beginner in amateur astronomy |
Christopher E. Spratt's Astronomy PageA Site Dedicated To The Astrometry Of Comets And Asteroids. This site enables me to share information related to amateur astronomy with others interested in such activities. You will find descriptions of my equipment, reviews of equipment and a small selection of some of the non-astrometry images I've taken. |
COOL OBSERVATORYHere's where the awesome imaging power of Amateur Astronomers will be displayed and explained. Most people never look up. My goal is to show you the wonders of Gods' creation, and the fact that you don't need to go to Mount Wilson to go stargazing...... |
30 years of Astronomy Equipment AdvertisementsThough these pages surely could not hold all the ads that came and went over the last 30 years, they includes enough to serve two purposes: 1) a reminiscent walk through the memories of our hobby 2) help for those interested in the "good deals" of the used telescope market; this may give them an idea of just what in the world they are selling! |
Homepage of R.J. StekelenburgTopics include: (AstroStack has some essential tools in order to load and combine a set of pictures (from an AVI video or a sequence of bitmaps) and make it into a detailed and noise free image. I wrote it to make my own work easier and improve my results and believe others could benefit from it too. ) |
Jim Pennington's Astrphotography PageA very, very informative page to visit for beginners and pros alike. Topics include: ( A complete step-by-step manual on construction of a backyard observatory) Configuring the SBIG ST-4 to operate as an off axis guider with the LX 200. |

Three Rivers ObservatoryThe Three Rivers Observatory is located in the Sierra Nevada at the entrance to Sequoia National Park in the Town of Three Rivers California. The Observatory is equipped with a CG14 with a 128mm f6 Takahashi piggybacked on it. Both scopes are mounted on a Software Bisque Paramount GT 1100 mount. An ST7 is used for deep sky photography and a Meade 416 is used for Solar and planetary imaging. |
Keith's Astro PageA neat page with lots of astrophotos from around the world. Here you'll find his collection of programs, photos, links, and topics relating to astronomy and astrophotography. Unless otherwise noted all photos in the gallery were taken with a 35mm camera and 50mm lens. |
