Object: IC1805 – The Heart Nebula SHO (2022)
The Heart Nebula, IC 1805, Sh2-190, lies some 7500 light years away from Earth and is located in the Perseus arm of the Galaxy in the constellation Cassiopeia. This is an emission nebula composed of glowing gases (ionized hydrogen, sulfur and oxygen) and darker cold dust lanes. The nebula is shape and illumination are produced by a central star cluster known as Melotte 15 aka Collinder 26.

NGC 3372 is an emission nebula in the Carina constellation, around 8500 light years from earth.
What we're looking at here is the center region of said nebula. The main feature in the center of the frame (sometimes referred to as the keyhole nebula) is essentially a structure of cold gas/dust that's been "carved" out its surroundings. The smaller dark structures surrounding it (we call these bok globules) are essentially the same thing taken to the extreme (very compressed and dense pockets of gas/dust).
The reason for all this is the stellar wind (think of it as radiation applying immense pressure) from the massive star you can see in the frame, called Eta Carinae. At roughly 150 times the mass of the Sun, massive is perhaps even an understatement. This very star is so extreme and interesting/weird in many aspects that I don't even know how to explain it in a format brief enough to fit this space. If this sort of stuff interests you; I highly recommend doing a Google search for "Eta Carinae" and read up on it (the Wikipedia article is a good summary).

Many may think that this is a picture of a sunrise in the Eastern Sky, but its actually the moon orange in colour rising. Left of the moon is Jupiter the big gas giant rises around 11:40pm C.D.T and is about 4 degrees to the upper left of the moon. So get out this month, because Jupiter is magnificent to view 😊

The Pleiades, also known as Seven Sisters and Messier 45, is an open star cluster of young, hot stars burning blue. A gaseous cloud is passing between earth and the Seven Sisters, and the bright blue star light causes the gaseous cloud to glow. The cloud is moving quickly, so in 1,000 years Pleiades will no longer be sporting the delicate halo. While a common name might suggest that the Pleiades has 7 stars, a closer look reveals about 1,000 stars bound loosely together.
Another common name for this deep sky object is Subaru.

IC5068 and the Pelican in Cygnus SHO Palette (Summer 2022)
IC5068 is an HII emission nebula in Cygnus located about 1600 light years from away that is just south of its more famous neighbor, The Pelican Nebula (IC5070), about 1800 light years away, which is also an HII emission nebula. The frame also contains parts of NGC700 or the North American Nebula in the upper right corner which is about 2600 light years away.

STORY:
Image taken on the last night of my Photo Tour in the Atacama Desert, in the Vado Putana region, a swampy area that appears in the middle of the desert, thus attracting a diversity of animals that live in this region.
Centralized in the image is Cerro Colorado, a stratovolcano belonging to the Sairecabur volcanic group.
This image was taken on the last night of my Photo Tour in the Atacama Desert. The temperature in the place, presented by the car's thermostat, was in the range of -7 degrees Celsius, without considering the wind, which certainly gave a thermal sensation of even colder.
The Air Glow, characteristic of the Atacama region, dyed the sky in shades of green, yellow and red, while the Milky Way cloud stood out in the scene, visible in detail in the night of the Chilean altiplano.

Story:
The Atacama sky is considered one of the best in the world for astrophotography for several reasons:
- Altitude: Much of the Atacama Desert is located at an altitude of around 2,400/4000 meters above sea level. The less amount of atmospheric air at this altitude means there is less distortion and turbulence in the atmosphere, which results in sharper, clearer images.
- Climate: The Atacama is the driest desert in the world, with an average of just 15mm of annual precipitation. This means there is little moisture in the air to absorb light and create distortions in the image. In addition, the sky is generally free of clouds, which allows for exceptional visibility.
- Geographic location: Atacama is located in a remote area of Chile, far from city lights and far from bright light sources. This makes the sky much darker and ideal for stargazing.
- Air quality: the air in Atacama is clean and pure, with low atmospheric combustion and little human activity. This means there are fewer particles in the air that could interfere with image quality.
Due to these factors, the Atacama sky is considered one of the best in the world for astrophotography and stargazing. It's an amazing place to capture sharp and stunning images of the night sky, including the Milky Way, nebulae and distant galaxies.

M81 - Bode's Galaxy & M82 – The Cigar Galaxy (March 2024)
Messier 81 (also known as NGC 3031 or Bode's Galaxy/Nebula) is a spiral galaxy about 12 million light-years away in the constellation Ursa Major. M81 is about 95,000 light years across, just a little smaller than the Milky Way galaxy at 100,000 light years across.
Messier 82, a spiral galaxy (also known as, M82, NGC 3034 or the Cigar Galaxy) is also located in Ursa Major. It is about 11.4 to 12.4 million light years from earth and is 40,800 light years across. Known as a “starburst galaxy” due to its exceptionally high rate of star formation, it is about 5 times more luminous than the entire Milky Way with a central region that is 100 times more luminous than our own galaxy. We see M82 from an edge on perspective.

Basalt Columns
I made the mistake of not bringing an extra battery and the one I had was very low. I didn't want to lose the angle of the galaxy so I too the shots a little earlier and had no second opportunity after total darkness. Overall happy though I would have liked to wait another 30 minutes and see how it would have looked.
This is a location I picked out because I like the cirque of basalt behind the rocks I will go back to photograph next time.
