Climate change? What climate change? Where’s your proof??? You aren’t going to believe this one. So I suffer from Hayfever – big deal – why are you talking about Hayfever at the end of December?? I know Hayfever symptoms (I’ve … Continue reading
Nice clear night last night and I managed to grab 20 x 10-minute subs with the Canon 200mm prime lenses and the ASI 2600MC Pro CMOS cameras on the Sadr region. A bit perverse imaging Cygnus at the end of … Continue reading
A bit of star reduction on the wide field Sadr region works wonders.
Surprisingly, even a region which is predominantly stars can benefit from a little star reduction.
Here are the first 200 Fibonacci numbers – and the list below shows whether they are Prime (True) or not (False). Courtesy of Mathematica. {1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610, 987, … Continue reading
Having spent the whole day on the Golden Ratio, the Fibonacci sequence, the Golden (Planar) Angle, and Phyllotaxis – here is a Mathematica produced piccie of the Sunflower seed-head pattern using 2,000 “seeds”.
The well-known Fibonacci sequence formed by summing consecutive terms looks like: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89………. And a well known property of this sequence is that if you take the ratio of consecutive terms … Continue reading
Another star reduced version of an oldie. This time it’s the North America/Pelican nebula region of Cygnus taken with the 200mm lenses and the Trius M26C OSC CCDs. This is a 3-frame mosaic.
Another oldie that benefits greatly from a bit of star reduction.
Another star-reduced image of an oldie.
