This site implements a database of my personal EAA observations. All images were captured by the webmaster. If you’re visiting: “Favorites” gives you a filterable list of my favorite objects. “Lists” provides links to all observations: “All (Chron)” in date order, starting with the earliest; others filter astronomical catalog listings (note: most objects appear in two or more lists).
My four most recent observations follow; use controls below to see earlier observations or select “Recents” to view 12 per page.
M48 / NGC 2548
It took a woman (Carolyn Herschel) to get it right!
M44 / Beehive Cluster
My favorite binocular target.

The only double star in the Messier Catalog; supposedly mistaken for a nebula recorded by the great 17th century astronomer and cartographer Hevelius.
M38 / NGC 1912 / Starfish Cluster
Famous Starfish Cluster, observed on a so-so night
