One thing you should note – it is not the World’s greatest idea to dither your “stills” if you later want to use the data to create an animation. I will try to do better next time 🙂 You can … Continue reading
Beautiful clear evening all night last night but I packed up at 2:30 in the morning after starting at 7:45 p.m. the evening before. This time the target was comet Garradd moving below Ursa Major and above Draco. I wasted … Continue reading
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 🙂
We had two perfect imaging evenings on Sat 18th Feb and Sunday 19th Feb – utterly superb. I took M101 data on both nights, 3 hours of 5-minute subs the first night and 2 hours of 10-minute subs the second … Continue reading
This is the full frame of Hyperstar III data taken last night (the 2010 dataset is not included).
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
Very nice globular cluster M3 in the constellation Canes Venatici. Taken with the Hyperstar III data from 22nd April 2009, 61 subs at 60-seconds per sub. I see that I left out a processing step in the cluster below so … Continue reading
I like clusters (open or globular) with a Milky Way background – and here’s one in the constellation Lyra – Messier 56. O.K. so it’s not much of a globular to look at, but the Milky Way background certainly brightens … Continue reading
In order to see all the galaxies and the asteroids more easily – here’s the image below in negative B&W 🙂 Enjoy!
A slightly more careful processing of the earlier data. At least 4 asteroids in there and North is to the right 🙂
