Hi! I'm Alicia.

I love astronomy, and have been studying it for 12 years. My specialties are carbon stars, deep-sky observing, & star names.
I'm just getting started in astrophotography now too, and some of my images are posted on my photostream.
All were taken with either: a remote telescope & CCD camera @ New Mexico Skies or Fair Dinkum Skies (courtesy of the Tzec Maun Foundation), or w/ my 6" telescope & beloved Nikon Coolpix L12.

Telescope & CCD model info can be found in the descriptions for the Tzec Maun images.

Thanks for looking!

-Update-
I've recently discovered the wonders of image processing, & am having lots of fun re-processing some of my older images.
As always, comments are welcome! :)
