Our home page banner is left for our user’s photos! The top banner is planned to be changed every two or four weeks. You can send your works to our FaceBook Group: QHYCCD Astronomy Imaging and better tag the topic#qhyccd, then we will pick up the best (or the most interest/creative) one from all photos shared. Please note:
1.All images should be captured with QHYCCD cameras;
2.Please attach basic specifications of each photo (e.g. equipment, exposure time, etc.) so that it would be help other astromers as useful reference. Besides, don’t forget attach your name and country.
