January 2011 Astrophotos

Here they are, the few astrophotos from January, 2011. The photo of the Puppis Double Cluster, (note the tiny planetary nebula in the left cluster) is also the last for my now-sold Canon 30D. Hopefully, the weather will clear and all the snow will melt so the era of the Nikon D700 can begin. THis should be a fun summer!

The 'other" double cluster, M47 and 47 in Puppis.

The Moon in the morning.

Jupiter meets Luna.

Venus through the clouds.

Humble requests:

If you found this informative (or at least entertaining), help me pay my bills and check out my Examiner pages for photography and astronomy for more great stuff.

If you think this was cool, why not tell a friend?
