I had taken many hours of M13 data using just about every piece of kit I have (except the 200mm lenses) – but I had never checked it to see if I could find the “propeller”. So I checked my … Continue reading
I take a break from astrophotography this week to show instead a pinhole photograph of 6-months of solar travel across my southern horizon. This exposure is from Winter Solstice 2021 until SUmmer Solstice 2022.
This week we feature a 200mm lens/M26C OSC CCD 2-frame mosaic of the IC2087 region in the massive Taurus Molecular Cloud region. A total of in excess of 15 hours of exposure time went into this one, and as you … Continue reading
This week we feature a rarely imaged Coddington’s Nebula (which is in fact a spiral galaxy) in Ursa Major. Over 10-hours of total exposure time using the Sky90 array.
Over 15-hours on the California nebula using the Sky90 array and the M26C OSC CCDs.
This week’s “Picture of the Week” is another Carbon star, this time W Orionis in the constellation Orion. Also designated SAO112406 and HD32736 this image comprises 15 x 10-minute subs on the Sky90 array using the M26C OSC CCDs.
This week’s “Picture of the Week” features the Carbon star Y Tauri in the constellation Taurus. This is a single frame Sky90 array image using the M26C OSC CCDs.
This week features bright star Vindemiatrix in the constellation Virgo. This is a Sky90 array image using the M26C OSC CCDs, and is a 2-frame (vertical) mosaic.
This week we feature the Pickering’s Triangle region of the Veil nebula in the constellation Cygnus. This image comprises many hours of Sky90/M26C exposure.
This week features the M44 (Beehive Cluster) “Stargate” in central Cancer. This is a composite image created using two outings (in different years) with the 200mm lenses and the M26C OSC CCDs in one year, and the 2600MC Pro CMOS … Continue reading
