Observations

These Observation pages shows a beginner's attempts to log and record his first steps, since December 2001, in astronomy.

Observations are made using Canon 10x30 IS binoculars, Meade ETX-70AT,  LX90, LX200GPS 10" and Coronado Solar Maxscope 40 telescopes. Also shown are my first steps in astrophotography with Canon G1 and EOS 10D digital cameras, Meade Electronic CCD eyepiece, Webcams and Starlight Xpress MX7C CCD camera.

The observations are grouped by target object and then by equipment type.
