ABOUT MYSELF (Pedro Ré)
I am a Marine Biologist and a Professor at the University of Lisbon/Portugal (Faculty of Sciences)
where I teach Animal Biology, Marine Biology and Biological Oceanography. I have a PhD in Animal Ecology
(1984) and my current research interests deal mainly with the study of Plankton and
Benthos Ecology.

Over the years I have acumulated a few telescopes telescopes that are house in two different observatories (roll-off-roof and dome) located in central Portugal. I began imaging the heavens using conventional emulsion-based photography but now have turned to CCD's. In 1994 I bought a Hi-sis 22 CCD camera. I now own several CCD cameras including a SBIG ST-7, SBIG ST-8E, a SBIG ST-10XE and BIG STL11000(some of my images were already published in several Astronomy Magazines: Sky and Telescope; CCD Astronomy; Astronomy; Astronomy Now; Astronomy Magazine; Ciel et Espace...). Observatory location In 2005 I acquired a Paramount ME german equatorial mount that was installed on Pier Tech 1 telescope Pier.
