Lovely clear evening last night, but there was an annoying Moon hanging around for most of the imaging session. Never mind, the Moon isn’t too much of a problem when you’re taking star shots. The one frame has caught two … Continue reading
All three data sets added together using Registar.
Another dense Milky Way shot, this time with a Carbon star in the centre of the FOV, V Aquilae, in the constellation Aquila. How many clear Moonless nights in a row are we going to get??
I recently took a very deep Hyperstar III 2-framer of the Tulip nebula region in Cygnus and Noel Carboni processed the two frame together to give this image 🙂
Yet ANOTHER clear Moonless night last night – and although feeling really sick with sleep deprivation – I went outside and fired up the beast. Really glad I did as the target was the open cluster M11 which sits in … Continue reading
Isaac Asimov had it right with this dense Milky Way region in Cygnus. Captured last night with the mini-WASP array, 7 x 15-minute subs on all 3 scopes and M26C OSC cameras.
Just the Sky 90 data on this one (I also have 2 datasets from the 2 TS 80s) showing the open cluster region around NGC 6871 and NGC 6883 in Cygnus.
So I’m spending a couple of hours imaging in Cygnus with both the mini-WASP array and the Hyperstar III 🙂
You can see a full colour image of the California nebula processed from DSS2 data here. The nebula extends to quite a way below the leftmost part of the image – it’s VERY big!
Not having the day job has given me a new imaging experience – the ability to image during June 🙂 With the day job I used to give up imaging half way through May (if not earlier) due to the … Continue reading
