I stacked each individual sub of this 38 subs x 40-minute stack of subs instead of stacking 4 blocks of subs together. This has given a far better SNR than my previous efforts. So this image is 25-hours and 20-minutes … Continue reading
This image of Quasar APM 08279+5255 in Lynx will make an appearance in a future Picture of the Week – but as I like this reprocess I am going to post it now. This image was captured with the original … Continue reading
I reprocessed all the recent 200mm lens data on this one and then cropped down to centre Arcturus whilst including Napoleon’s Hat (below-right of Arcturus).
I just reprocessed the Corona Borealis 3-framer taken with the 200mm lenses and 2600MC Pro CMOS cameras. This data was collected in June 2024 under astronomical twilight.
It was clear again last night, but as the Moon was beginning to get more intrusive I only intended to work on the collimation of camera5 (200mm lens). However, after getting the best collimation I could, it felt a shame … Continue reading
Another clear evening last night (we’ve had a good run this last week) and I got 13 x 10-minute subs with the 200mm lenses on the M106 region. If I make a 2-framer out of this by getting the frame … Continue reading
A beautiful, completely clear, Moonless night last night, and warm as well! I imaged from 10 p.m. until 1:15 a.m. with the 200mm lenses and 2600MC Pro Cmos cameras. Two targets: A star field in Ursa Major. Arcturus. The star … Continue reading
Fired up the 2 x 200mm lenses and 2600MC Pro CMOS cameras last night. Started at astronomical darkness (now 10:00 p.m.!!!) and finished when the mount hit the Meridian and also cloud started rolling in from the West at 12:30 … Continue reading
As Spica is well-positioned for imaging this time of year, I thought I’d quickly check out previous data. The above image is a few hours of Sky90 data, and as I am not going to improve on this one too … Continue reading
As I have completed the Coma Cluster data to my satisfaction, I went back to look at all the Markarian Chain data I took in 2022 and reprocessed that. This is 48 x 4-minute subs on the Hyperstar 4, and … Continue reading
