We are dedicated to the Art of Astrophotography and share as many images as we can on this site.  As of April 2023 the imaging scope is a TEC 140mm refractor mounted on a Software Bisque Paramount MX+.

   Image of the Month - Annular Eclipse, Bulverde, Texas.  This phase of the eclipse is the Ring of Fire.  What's interesting about this image is the phenomenon known as Baily's Beads where the mountains and valleys of the Moon breakup the smooth edge of the Moon and allow the Sun's light to filter through the edge!  This image was captured with a Nikon D3200 at f/8, 800 ISO and a Thousand Oaks Solar filter.
