Welcome to Nik Szymanek's Astronomy Web Site. Here you will find details of my activities in astronomy and CCD imaging. As is the case with most of the UK we suffer from terrible light pollution and to get the most from our equipment, Ian King and I travel to La Palma, one of the Canary Islands off the coast of West Africa. From there we can image from one of the best sites in the northern hemisphere and work alongside the domes of the UK's premier telescopes. Use the links below to navigate to pages containing our latest images and astrophotographs. A recent trip to the Observatory at Mauna Kea, Hawaii, was a huge success and you can see the results of that using the "Images from Hawaii" link below.
Here you will also find details of the Havering Astronomical Society, with details of our activities and forthcoming meetings and events. Be sure to check out the link to Ian King's Web pages where you'll find some of the best colour CCD images taken from the UK.
For the last few years I've been processing images taken with the Isaac Newton Group of telescopes at La Palma . Look at these pages for some stunning CCD images. Also here is a page showing images taken by the JKT at La Palma that I've processed for the ING Heritage Project. This is an ongoing project and we hope to add more images as they become available.
Latest Additions:
New CCD images added to the CCD Imaging from the UK section
New Lunar and Solar CCD images (accessed via the CCD Imaging from the UK page)
New link to previous musical projects (see button below)
Images that I've taken recently using the Faulkes 2m Robotic telescope on Maui, Hawaii (updated frequently)
