The bright star Bellatrix in the constellation Orion.
This week we feature a highly red-shifted Quasar in the constellation Lynx. It is no surprise that before it was formally identified it was thought that this was a Carbon star.
Using a hand held Canon DSLR and imaging through Aluminised Mylar film my son took this one. Way better than my efforts – and the sunspots came out great 🙂
Went over the forest last night with my son for some eclipse imaging. Started a little after 6 p.m. and finished up around 7:30 p.m.
Thoroughly pleasant evening, especially as my son brought two fold up chairs with him 🙂
Images produced by the projection method and they were copied off the screen with a Canon 5D MkII DSLR.
