Super Nova SN2012aw

Well had one clear night last week. Took a shot of the new supernova in M95 - SN2012aw. M95 is pretty close to us - only 37 million light years away so the event we're seeing now happened a scant 37 million years ago. I've marked the location of SN2012aw so you can see it better.

Happy Dog!

A very big thank you to the Tidelands Poodle Club for having us shoot this weekend at what has to be one of our most favorite outdoor venues (thank you Laura and Dave). Here's a shot of Spinner having a big time through the tire. See you all at Merrimac!

Nightly Vigil

For those of you who have wondered where those astro images come from - here you go. The Astro Haven. I figure every hour spent in here under the stars is time added to my life.
