I had a little while today to blow the dust off the old solarscope and try to do do a little imaging. After checking out the sun visually I decided to start doing a sweep of the sun with my Meade Electronic Eyepiece and do a video of the many prominences around it.  Then I switched to my DSLR and shot many frames of the the whole disk and downloading it directly to my … [Read more...]

One last posting about Space Park in Titusville, Florida. We knew we were getting close when we passed these two street signs. I am sure there is a lot more hidden Space Gems throughout Titusville if one had time to explore a little. … [Read more...]

May 26, 2010 by CtCameraEye Leave a Comment

Getting brighter by the second the ISS brightened to a magnitude of -3.2 as it passed to the south of my location basically passing over New York … [Read more...]

May 11, 2010 by CtCameraEye 1 Comment

While going out to my car this afternoon to get some lunch I noticed a great looking, complete solar halo right at noon time. For a bonus, I also noticed a Circumhorizon arc just below it. At first not knowing the proper name of the arc below the sun I did some quick research online and found this great website called Atmospheric Optics. It is a great reference sight for … [Read more...]

Welcome

You have found the new CtCameraEye website. Updated from my old blog site that I had for over six years. A lot has changed over that time, and the new site here will show you many of the new places where I have been and what I have accomplished. A better blog site to keep in touch with you all, and finally, a new project that I have been working on for the past year which I will be announcing in the next few months. Stay tuned a lot of neat stuff will be happening!

Mercury Transit

May 10, 2016 By CtCameraEye Leave a Comment

        It was about 10 years since I saw the last Transit of Mercury across the face of sun. The last time I had a lot of time to get set up and practice my exposures on the sun. This year I was working and was only able to get the last hour […]
