Images and events of personal interest.

Classic Allegney Observatory image at the new location within Riverview Park.
I decided to transform this image I snapped of anique lathe into an "older syle" photograph to set the mood. The lathe is a belt driven un-named unit, but in exceptional condition for its' age. This machinery is located in the basement of Allegheny Observatory in Riverview Park, Pittsburgh, PA.
This Monarch Lathe is in wonderful shape and is located at Allegheny Observatory approximately beneath the Observatory's Lecture Room.
Old Delta Drill press - possibly about a 14 inch.
The moon imaged on April 21, 2007 at Mingo Creek Park Observatory. 10 inch f-12 refractor.
