Just read where there was a high chance for a solar storm today due to a massive increase in sunspots. That last time I photographed the sun, there was very little activity. Well, I went outside a few minutes ago and they weren't kidding. That's a lot of sunspots...

I monitor this site for solar activity. Particularly for aurora chances. Has to be a major G3 or G4 storm to get them down south enough to see here though
 
Had clear skies and no moon last night. I was finally able to shoot the flame and horsehead nebula again. This is a stack of 81 60 second exposures. Next time I am going to try and get 3 hours of exposure time to really bring out the finer details....

Here is a couple I shot in Oct. This is the Pleiades star cluster (commonly called the seven sisters)....
