There's definately stuff to look at :)
By Day I work for The University of Dayton Research Institute in their Materials Engineering Division, specializing in High Speed Optical Camera systems.
By night I’m a Professional Astro-Photographer with 25 years experience in capturing the night sky!
I’ve worked on NASA’s “Ulysses”& “Deep Impact” Programs, AAVSO, MPC, & National Science Foundation Projects over the years, Basically I make my living shooting the sky!
I’ve had the interest in Astronomy since I was 7 years old, but did not get seriously passionate about it until I was age 24, when I built my first Homemade 16″ Newtonian telescope and then my observatories in Dayton & Yellow Springs, Ohio.
My images have been featured on the Front Cover of “Time” and in “National Geographic”, Science, Discover, Newsweek, Astronomy, S&T, as well as hundred of books.
My work is also featured on TV programs like Discovery, Science, The BBC’s “The Sky at Night” & The History Channel’s “The
Universe” program.
My Lunt solar scope setup is a 60mm/50F B/1200 H-Alpha Dedicated Solar Telescope with a DMK 21AF04 Fire-wire Camera for High resolution imaging of the Solar Surface and Prominences.
I’ve owned several other manufacturers H-Alpha solar scopes in the past, none even come close to the performance of a Lunt Solar Scope.
The quality of the Lunt scopes and the images that are produced through their fine Instruments are absolutely incredible, both visually and photographically!
I must say that my Lunt Solar scope is my Favorite & Best Instrument purchase in 25 years of imaging!

Below are some Hydrogen Alpha Sun Shots I took on 9-1-11. All captured with my DMK 21AFO4 fire-wire camera and my Lunt 50mm/LS50F H-Alpha Scope 1/500 second exposures.
Below are more images taken with my Lunt 60mm/50F H-Alpha solar telescope captured with a DMK 21AF04 Fire-wire Camera!
