"Ty" is the Welsh word for "house;" "Adar," I understand, is the Welsh word for "birds." The part of my ancestry with which I identify most strongly is my father's Welsh heritage. My house is almost constantly surrounded by birds and I would like my home on the web to reflect my own home. Although I may include items on birds, things Welsh, and my own home, these are but a few of my many interests and I certainly will not limit my posts.

Second Planetary Astrophoto, Saturn
Saturn, taken 2019, July 25 at (PDT) 12:10:07 am through my Dynamax 8, 2110mm f/10, telescope with a 20mm eyepiece projecting the image into my Olympus Pen-F camera at ISO 2000 and 1/30 sec. exposure. My telescope's RA drive clutch no longer engages, thus this photo was taken without tracking and hence the high ISO leaving the image quite noisy.
Saturn currently sits low in my southern sky in the constellation Sagittarius, so this view is through a lot of coastal atmosphere on a clear moonless night. Click on the image itself to see it in its full-sized glory. This is a telescope's view, inverted; I have not turned it to an upright normal view.
