Dark Horse Observatory
Welcome to Dark Horse Observatory in Kimberton, PA
I have created this web site in order to share the images I take with others who are interested in astronomy & astrophotography. I hope that it provides the visitors with both aesthetic pleasure and with learning. I hope to share some of my learnings along the way as I endeavor to master this challenging hobby. Like my skills, this site will grow so please return often to see what is new.
Why the name, Dark Horse Observatory? Well as you can see from the logo, it reflects the Horsehead nebula, one of my favorite objects. Also, the checkerboard reflects my interest in chess, and a black knight resembles a dark horse. Finally, it was a long shot (another expression for this is "a dark horse") that I would ever get an observatory. If that isn't reason enough, I just like the name and the logo!
