Astronomical Pictures
All interesting astronomical pictures taken in the domes or with other equipment should be copied to the following location:
/data/observations/
The subfolder canon is meant for pictures taken with the Canon DSLR, the subfolder CCD for pictures taken with the SBIG cameras. Both directories contain subdirectories for the objects observed, e.g. M42. The directories should be globally writable, so put your new pictures in the corresponding subdirectories or create a new one.
See the observation log which pictures are already available
