Astronomy Club


We had an observing night at my astronomy club tonight, which meant everyone brought their telescopes. I planned to do a group photo for our website, and for some flyers we were thinking of making. So everyone came early and set up their scopes, which in some cases takes nearly half an hour. The sun had already set, so the light was fading, but it was very soft and good light for a portrait. I balanced on my rickety step ladder so I could get high enough to be able to see everyone. So here we are. There were a bunch of people who were away, observing under really dark skies in western Pennsylvania. But there were enough of us for a nice group photograph.
