Hi Paul; very sharp, I can't wait to see the H-alpha image, it should be quite a sight, especially with all that's going on up there. Have a good day, Dan.

Hi Alan: An amazing presentation, the amount of detail is quite stunning.
Hopefully, in about 8 days, you may be able to capture a huge prominence as
AR 10960 rotates over the Sun's western limb. Thanks for posting, Dan

Hi Dietmar:
This was my first ever evening image of Venus, I usually capture it on or
near the celestial meridian at 4 o'clock local time. I like the way it
turned out. The twilight image appears to be smoother and contains more
depth than my earlier daylight shots.
Have a great day, Dan

Hi Freddy:
The "Venus Filter" is a good idea, in order to obtain a sharp image you
need excellent seeing conditions, like what you guys have in Hawaii, give
one a try and let us see the results.

Hi Jim:
I checked out that web sight, quite imaginative art work.
Have you clicked on spaceweather.com this evening, they're showing a comet
about to graze the Sun!
Thanks, Dan

Hi Chase:
The image scale and resolution will increase rather dramatically from here
on out, thanks to the laws of Celestial Orbital Mechanics, not my doing.
Have a great evening, Dan

Hi Steve:
You're right, today the (Earth, Venus) Sun angle is 90 degrees, that means
tonight we enter the crescent phase, it should be quite a spectacular show
from here on out. Steve, that .gif sounds like it would be "great imaging
fun", I already tried one with Saturn. Now I'm planing on doing 3-D shots
of Mars starting in July.
Thanks, Dan

Bond and friendsPosted By Dan Petersen |
Hi Wes, congratulations, that's a very professional quality (B&W) composite image of our moon's northern limb.
It's the highest resolution shot of Bond and vicinity that I've seen. Not many of us have a perfectly aligned
and motorized 18" monster scope, it must be nice. Have a good day, Dan.
