My most-recent image is at the top. That is not necessarily the most-recently dated image.
Clicking on the thumbnail image should take you directly to the new picture, but that doesn't always work first time. Pressing "Reload" on the new page usually moves you to the correct place but this doesn't work if you have come via my .tk address. Afterwards use the Back button on your browser to get back here.

This is the first picture I made with my new ST80 refractor. It is a mosaic of two images taken the same night as the picture below. |

A while back I purchased a Sky Watcher ST80 refractor and have now piggybacked it on my LX200. This picture is my first attempt at a deep-space object, M42, using this telescope. |

I've added three more pictures of Mars taken between 10th December 2005 and 11th January 2006. As Mars moves further away, the pictures get smaller and fewer surface details are visible. The thumbnail will take you to my Mars-2005 page; the new pictures are the top three.. | ||
 |
I've added 24 images of the Moon shot last November and December. Clicking on the thumbnail will take you to my page of Latest Lunar Images where you can see thumbnails of all of them. | ||
 |
I've added a new picture of Saturn to my Saturn2005 page. It ws taken at about 04:40 on 11th December 2005. | ||
| I've added another image of Mars to my Mars collection. It was taken on 12th November 2005 and is, I think, one of my best in the visible this season. Clicking on the thumbnail will take you to my Mars-2005 page; the new image is at the top. | ||
| I've added five new pictures to my Moon collection. In addition to Sinus Iridum, the pictures cover the Carpathian mountains, Gassendi, and wide-angle pictures of the northern quadrant and the area around Tycho. Clicking on the thumbnail will take you to my 'Latest Lunar Images' page from which you can access them all. | ||
 |
I have added two mosaics of the eastern part of the Moon concentrating on the Maria and Laci there. Clicking on the thumbnail will take you to the picture in visible light which was taken with my focal reducer and covers much of the eastern half of the Moon. From there you can go to an image of a part of this area captured in infra-red light at prime focus of my LX200. | ||

Saturn on 18th November 2005, a very clear morning. Clicking on the thumbnail will take you to my Saturn-2005 page. The new picture is at the top. |

I have been experimenting further with pictures in exaggerated colours and also have new pictures of these features in infra-red. This is a picture of the region around Aristarchus, and I also have new pictures of Sinus Iridum and Mare Humorum. Clicking on these links will take you to the infra-red images; the coloured ones are below them. | ||

And a new IR image of Schiller. | ||
