The Summer Milky Way above Oak Creek Canyon by Radical Retinoscopy, on Flickr

Sagittarius and the summer Milky Way is seen setting amongst the mountains of Oak Creek Canyon. The canyon is located about eight miles north of Sedona, AZ. It is truly amazing how bright and dramatic the Milky Way appears far from the city lights.

If you stand at the right spot the Presidio of San Francisco in mid to late July, then you will see a surprisingly bright light appear at the top of the Transamerica Pyramid for about two minutes sometime between 12:40pm and 12:50pm. The Sun and the Pyramid align to reflect the sunlight towards
the Presidio. This photo was shot on July 26, 2011.

This is a combined Ha CaK solar image. Joseph Brimacombe's graciously provided me with the narrow band images so that I might experiment with combining them.

This is a combined Ha CaK solar image. Joseph Brimacombe's graciously provided me with the narrow band images so that I might experiment with combining them. The original narrow band images appear at the bottom with the Ha on the left and the CaK on the right.

Reposted... the first post didn't seem to have the image.
