Couple of my best stills of Jupiter, one showing a double transit of Callisto and Io, the other showing Ganymede and the great red spot. Waiting on weather and work to give me a shot at Saturn, these exceptional seeing days are hard to come by, and factoring that in with a transit,.... I should just play the lottery!🤣

Sturgeon Moon Eclipse,

Trying to dodge the clouds made tracking the moon difficult, but I was glad I was able capture what I did. Did my best in post processing to try and stabilize these shots but again, clouds did not help, and unfortunately during totality I wasn't able to get any of the reddish color,... also because of all the clouds. So here is an almost complete time lapse of the Sturgeon moon Lunar eclipse. It was still cool, I'll take anything I can get!!

Of course there were clouds during totality of tonight’s almost full lunar eclipse ,… 😭Still need to process the time lapse I took,…hmmm maybe it wasn’t too shabby?

It was a very busy Friday night at Milky Way Point, everyone wanted to see the Perseid meteor showers. Although I saw many, I was only able to catch a couple. As usual I was the last man standing! Here is a TL of the night.

Taking shots of the Perseid meteor shower at Milky Way Point and I caught what I believe to be a meteor coming straight at me. There was a large group and we all saw this together. In real time it looked like a bright dot that got increasingly brighter then disappeared. Luckily the shutter was open when it happened. Also if you look you can see a plane trail above & to the right just a bit, this was really cool to see!

Here is the partial solar eclipse time laps, shot in my back yard here in Woburn, MA. With only 16% coverage it was still cool to witness, I wish there were less clouds, but the SeeStar did very well tracking considering. Always a learning experience in hopes for another full eclipse someday! The first half is shot with the Seestar solar filter the last half shot with the baader film filter, for the white spectrum. Enjoy!!

Working on a Timelapse of today’s partial eclipse, stay tuned!
