My name is David Nash and this is my web page. Here you will find the results of my "adventures in astrophotography". I use webcams and dedicated astronomy CCD cameras, as well as film and digital SLR cameras and a variety of telescopes.
astro montage

I live in Cambridgeshire in England in a small village fairly close to average size towns, but where the sky is dark enough to have a good view and make astronomy worthwhile.
I hope you enjoy looking at my pictures!

Peculiar Pairing

Picture of the Month
The latest picture of the month shows a view of two interacting galaxies known as the Hockey Stick and the Whale -- or sometimes the Herring galaxy. Both are given their names because of their distinctive shapes. The pair of galaxies has been given the designation ARP 281 in the Arp Catalog of Peculiar Galaxies.
