Found out the site likes JPG better than PNG. I’m going to upload several images. Yosef, feel free to use these, just give me credit along with the RAC. Thanks!

Trying to upload photos. I may have to upload one image at a time. This was from June 8th—A glorious night for astronomy.

Totally agree with you Macastronome! I was over at Keller Wildlife Management Area taking dark sky readings, observing and photographing some galaxies! Let’s share at our meeting tonight!
