Shadows in Schiller

Posted By Carlos E. Hernandez

Wes,

A very unusual image of Schiller with long shadows. The sun angle must have been very shallow for this to develop. A very interesting image. Thank you for sharing it with us all.

The Sun and Mercury (moving outward) September 1

Posted By Carlos E. Hernandez

Paul,

Great images of the solar surface and Mercury. The solar images reveal much detail including delicate faculae. I believe that I note detail over the disk of Mercury in your image. I look forward to your future images.

An outstanding image of Uranus obtained through one of your incredible instruments. I believe that I note faint albedo features (variations) over your image. Thank you for sharing this image with us all.

NGC6818 Planetary Nebula

Posted By Carlos E. Hernandez

Roland,

A very impressive image of the planetary NGC6818. This planetary, located in Sagittarius, shows complex detail. I wonder if the red streaks represent jets emanating from the central star? Thank you for sharing this image with us all.

Pluto observation from BFSP - Sep 11-12 2004

Posted By Carlos E. Hernandez

Doug,

An excellent feat for any observer! This is a difficult object, at best, to observe. I am glad that you were able to pick this very distant object as well as the satellites of Uranus and Neptune.
