Hi All,

I came across the other day, this awesome site devoted to Astrophotography Resources.

ArtdeCiel - the website dedicated to Astrophotography

I thought I’d share it with you.

It has an amazing set of resources – online Messier, Caldwell, Herschel 400 catalogues; Stephen O’Meara’s Hidden Treasures list; a CCD Calculator and Eyepiece Calculator; Constellation Maps.

For registered members there is also access to a 100,000 DSO target list!; a 1000 Lunar Features database; extra featured CCD and Eyepiece Calculators and an incredible What’s Up Wizard.

There is also Image Galleries and features on famous astrophotographers, famous telescopes, famous cameras, history of astrophotography, a forum, a blog....

If you want the Ultimate Astrophotography Challenge then go to this link:

The 'A' List - The Ultimate Astrophotography Challenge

I checked it out - it is No.1,2,3 and 4 in Google when you search ‘Astrophotography Challenge’.

I think the site is new and the guy needs some support, could do with more images and members.

Check it out.
