Hi All,

After recieving the notice from the IAU, I went out to my observatories last night to shoot this Supernova in NGC4088,

I also pulled out one of my old B&W images from 1994, of this galaxy.

The new 2009 photo with Supernova is a
25 minute exposure in LRGB with my 16″ and ST9 CCD.

I posted both images.   The Supernova is about 13.5 magnitude in this nice Barred Spiral Galaxy in Ursa Major,  its not far from M109.
Best Regards,

John Chumack
