These are very high contrast color reproductions. The brightness value of your computer monitor may need to be increased to bring out the subtle colors and faint details in each image.
To reproduce the extreme detail contained in astronomical images, I have rendered fairly large image files. Your download may be slow.
The Gallery is not intended to be a technical "how to" presentation of astrophotography,
but a short list of technical notes is included with each image along with a brief description
of the object. Each astronomical image is the result of long exposure photography through camera lenses and telescopes,
yielding a dynamic and colorful universe. Guests unfamiliar with the process of astrophotography are invited to E-mail
John Gleason their questions and comments.
