This is the place to find photographs of activities and astrophotography done by members of the Platte Valley Astronomical Observers. If you have club photos to submit, please e-mail me at the link below. Please note we have 3 great astrophotographers in our group. It's impossible for me to keep up with all the wonderful images they create! Fortunately they have taken it upon themselves to maintain their own photo web site. Click "Astrophoto Guys" on the menu above to view their wonderful images.
