NGC 2170 is a reflection nebula in the constellation of Monoceres the Unicorn
I started this project in early January. Almost every sub-exposure had a satellite trail. This has to be the worst target I've ever attempted and I'm renaming NGC 2170 to Satellite Road :)

Messier 101, also known as the Pinwheel galaxy, is located in the constellation Ursa Major. It is best observed in the Northern hemisphere during the spring time. Those in the Southern hemisphere may be lucky to observe it close to the horizon during the fall season.
This was a challenging object to photograph, in particular because I was imaging in from my backyard in Toronto (a Bortle 8 location). Severe light gradients took a lot of processing in Pixinsight and Photoshop to remove.
Overall I am happy with the image: blue star-forming regions are clearly observed, along with discrete dust lanes and the arms of the galaxy.
Technical info: three nights of imaging were required to capture 120 luminance images (1 min per image), 24 red (4 min), 7 green (2 min), and 25 blue (3 min), yielding a total integration time of 665 min's (over 11 hours)! Camera was an SBIG STF-8300M using Baader LRGB filters. The imaging telescope was a Celestron EdgeHD8 with a 0.65x reducer (focal length of ~ 1400mm). The mount was a Celestron CGX, and imaging control was done using N.I.N.A. Images were processed in Pixinsight, Photoshop, and Topaz Labs DeNoise AI.

This is an image of the lunar "Bay Of Rainbows" or Sinus Iridum. It is situated in the moon's northwest quadrant.
Imaged during the evening of 22nd April the feature has just emerged from the lunar terminator and the rising sun's low angle is providing great contrast within the image.
Situated on the edge of the large Mare Imbrium it is called a bay but is actually a crater whose right or Mare facing wall has been virtually obliterated. Only a few disconnected fragments remain.
The remaining mountainous wall is fairly high and you can see areas of it catching the sun strongly in the image.
There are two capes at each end of the bay. Uppermost is the Promontorium Laplace - casting a lovely shadow onto the bay -and the lowermost cape is the Promontorium Heraclides.
The whole bay is around 236km across.
The low angle of the sun is beautifully highlighting numerous wrinkle ridges or Dorsa. This adds to the analogy of the Mare Imbrium being a sea as the dorsa are like waves heading towards shore!!
Zooming in on the bay and mare areas reveals a wealth of small craters peppering the surface.
Imaged with a Celestron C11 and a ZWO 290MM camera/Baader long pass filter.
Thanks for looking!!

Ce jeudi 21 juillet 2022 marque le 53ème anniversaire des premiers pas sur la Lune par Neil Armstrong et Buzz Aldrin.
Cette photo est le fruit de 21 vidéos faites avec une caméra dédiée pour les imageries planétaires (la ZWO ASI178MC) derrière un télescope Celestron C8 hedge ayant une focale de 2000mm.
Cette vidéo pour rendre hommage à ces trois formidables explorateurs de l'espace que sont Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin et Michael Collins :

Old Digital Camera: Nikon D300 (2007)
Old Telescope: Celestron Firstscope 80 EQ (2000)
(Press "L" or click on the image for a large view).
Travel Notes: Took image with an old Achromatic refractor + 2X low quality teleconverter. Making it like a 1,800mm telephoto; but when you add the X1.5 crop factor of the DSLR, is like a 2,700mm Telephoto on a full-frame camera. Use a cable release, timer, and Nikon exposure Delay mode in order to minimize shutter vibration. No crop was done to the image. Edited on Adobe Camera Raw and Google Nik Collection, Color Efex Pro 4. If you click two times on the image for a 100% view; you will be able to see craters as small as 5 miles or 8 kilometers in diameter.
(Spanish/Bitácora: Utilice un viejo telescopio junto a un multiplicador. Lo cual lo convirtió en una distancia focal de 1,800mm. Pero al añadir el "crop factor" de la cámara, es casi equivalente a un lente telefoto de 2,700mm.
Thanks for your visits, comments, faves, and views.
Nice steady seeing, an obliging sun angle to the lunar surface and proximity to the lunar terminator, all combined to give this nicely contrasted, detailed image of the Clavius region.
Found within the moon's Southwest quadrant Clavius crater dominates this image at centre and contains a distinctive arc of smaller craters within its boundaries.
The floor has an area greater than that of Switzerland. Crater Clavius is around 225km in diameter.
Many fine details are visible within the image from craterlets to ridges to fine pits. Also notable is the longitudinal scarring/ridges to the top and right of Clavius.
Imaged with a Celestron C11 SCT and a ZWO290MM camera/Baader long pass filter.
Many thanks for looking!
