Clear skies to all !! Thanks for visiting my site !! | Updated February 9, 2010 |

The Astronomy Webcam Paradise I have participated to the beginning of the webcam adventure in astronomy. You will find here old and recent images and how to modify your own webcam. Some of my main interests are planetary imaging, 3D stereoscopic vision and near infrared photography. Buying an H-alpha filter for the Venus transit made me a passionate observer of our Star. After the moded Canon 300D (now reserved for near IR photography), I have now a partially defiltered Canon EOS 40D and I can say that liveview changes my life ! Otherwise Registax5, Astrosnap and Deepskystacker are some of my best friend programs :) Sylvain Weiller
