The Hyperstar III only data from last weekend without the lower resolution Sky 90 (Cone nebula) data added. I now really want to get some frames off the top to see more of that fascinating dark nebulosity 🙂

With the recent glut of images due to the perfect conditions these last two evenings I have now surpassed 200 deep-sky images acquired at the New Forest Observatory since winter 2004 🙂 Champers time methinks.

A most fantastic evening’s imaging last night – 5 and a half hours of data on two objects. The first was in Monoceros (next door to Orion) where I captured this fascinating, and very busy region around IC 2169. We … Continue reading

The Sunday Telegraph on 26th February 2012 will contain a colour glossy brochure of deep-sky objects produced with Astronomy Now magazine – and judging by the cover it will contain a few of my images 🙂 Be sure to order your copy … Continue reading
In order to see all the galaxies and the asteroids more easily – here’s the image below in negative B&W 🙂 Enjoy!
