2024-08-12 to 13 - Perseid meteors.  The picture is a compilation of about 20 images (out of about 700) that I took last year for the Perseid meteor shower which is always Mid-August.  In 2024 the peak was around Aug 12 or 13.  I just got around to processing them which is why they are just coming online. I was trying to extract just the visible meteor lines but I have not been able to achieve a reasonable end result so just publishing the image as-was.

2024-01-30  LBN863 or Lower'sNebula - Pictures of the nebula with my 16" telescope.  The picture is the luminance, hydrogen alpha (Ha) and OxygenIII (Oiii) images combined as red, green and blue images.  Kind of a wild color palette but I like the orange detail in part of the nebula. 

2024-08-11_12 Aurora - About midnight on the 11th to 2:30AM on Aug 12. If you look about 9 seconds into the video clip the colors are spectacular!  This was about 1:45AM.  Aurora forecasts are on NASA's website https://www.swpc.noaa.gov/products/aurora-30-minute-forecast
2024-04-17 - Total solar eclipse taken at 2:04PM 2024-04-08 during the total eclipse showing prominences (loops), flares (non-loops) and structure in the corona - which is what I was trying to get.  I have colorized the image a little.  In southern Illinois.
2024-05-10_11 - on my driveway, aurora or northern lights.  Taken between 10:30PM on May 10 to 4:30AM on May 11. I have adjusted the color to be more visible and reduced the noise on the pictures.
