NGC2024 - The Flame Nebula (left) and IC434 - The Horsehead Nebula (upper right) taken on 02/17/2012. Unguided 60 second exposures taken using a Hyperstar-equipped Celestron CGEM-925, Canon EOS Rebel T1i, and IDAS LPS-P2 filter. Stacked and processed in DeepSkyStacker and Photoshop.

This image of the Ring Nebula (M57) has been made from some shots that I took during the small hours of today. DeepSkyStacker used to stack the best 80% (108 frames used). The shots were captured with Backyard EOS using a Canon 60D mounted onto a Skywatcher 200 reflector.

Minha primeira captura da Galáxia do Triângulo (M33). É uma de nossas galáxias vizinhas, sendo grande e brilhante no céu, localizada relativamente próxima a Andrômeda. O enquadramento não foi dos melhores e nem a guiagem, porém ainda sim gostei bastante da captura. A captura foi feita a partir de um local bortle 1/2, o @campingecachoeiradoscristais sem filtros.

 

My first capture of the Triangulum Galaxy (M33). It's one of our neighbour galaxies and is big and bright in the night sky, being located next to the Andromeda galaxy. The framing or guiding wasn't the best, but even though I like the results. The picture was taken from a bortle 1/2 site, the @campingecachoeiradoscristais , without filter.

 

Canon T3i modified, Sky-Watcher 200p (200/1000mm) with comma corrector 1.1x, ISO 800.

Messier 17, também conhecida como Nebulosa Ômega ou Nebulosa do Cisne, é uma das maiores regiões de formação de estrelas na nossa galáxia Via Láctea.

 

A Nebulosa Ômega foi descoberta em 1745 pelo astrônomo Suíço Jean-Philippe Loys de Chéseaux. Está localizada a 5.500 anos-luz da Terra na constelação do Sagitário. A nebulosa tem uma magnitude aparente de 6 e pode ser vista com binóculos.

Here's a stacked image of the great orion nebula. The setup was a standard camera tripod so there's no tracking. I'm in the process of building an EQ mount. I'll repost this nebula when that's all done.

The final 3 of the 8 subs were taken last night, the first clear night in two weeks and probably my last deep sky imaging session for a while - the Moon is waxing now and I'm away around the next New Moon (Poor planning!).

Skywatcher 120ED 840 mm, Canon EOS 6D. 12x300 s. ISO 1600. DeepSkystacker, PixInsight, PHD.

The planet Saturn and its two moons, Titan (lower left) and Iapetus (upper right, farther away). This is just a test shot and it turned out overexposed, but the ring can still be (faintly) seen on its lower left and upper right corners. The spot very close to Saturn's upper right corner may be the superposition of Dione and Rhea.

This was a very hot few nights capturing this data with my uncooled DSLR. It made for some very noisy data, that was really tough to process.

I can't wait for the cold long nights to return. Clear Skies all.

I took this before the "Orion's Belt and Sword" one was taken, to make sure the direction is right. The sky was quite clean and Orion is an intrinsically pretty bright constellation, so I only took 16 for stacking and it turned out well.

Shot during my first astrophotography session. Just wanted to see what I could get with 30 second exposures. And it looks like 30 seconds gives you stars at 10.4 mag (they are very faint, but still easily spotted on full size photo)

 

I messed up stacking a bit, used darks for different exposure, but despite that, it turned pretty well for a first try.

Here’s my last image from Thursday night’s Danville trip. The wind had picked up more and the clouds started coming through so I had to limit this one to only 30 minutes. I had to meridian flip in the middle and I was surprised to see that DeepSkyStacker was able to align them without issues. I was also surprised to easily pick up the horsehead with my stock Canon in exposures as short as 60 seconds.

Shot this image on a tri-pot of the southern sky, which I can't see at home.

 

Not bad for 8 second subs

The second of my images using the knowledge I picked up at a recent astrophotography event at Kielder Observatory. Like the first, this uses images initially intended to capture Perseid meteors in August 2013.

 

This image is made up of 102, 30 second exposures stacked using DeepSkyStacker and processed using Photoshop Elements. It shows Lacerta at the top left and northern Cygnus in the centre.

Final Touch with Photo Shop

After 3 days of trying I finally managed to capture a Geminid Meteor, and it felt good.

 

Day1 - had completly clear skies, 30 sec exposure ISO 800, only small meteors in viewfinder never showed up

 

Day2 - Cloudy

 

Day3 - Clear skies again. This time set my exposure to 8 seconds at ISO 1600, captured a a couple of little ones but didnt really show.

Then all of a sudden this beauty went streaking down the middle of my shot, quickly looked down at my camera and luckily it was capturing, image popped up on my display and I was very happy to say the lease, Might not look like much but it made my day.

 

I've stacked it with my other exposures to reduce the noise.

    

Houston's haze and light pollution kept the nebula in the Pleiades from showing up, but also made the sky clean as opposed to 'ordinary' astro-photos crowded with stars! (Better viewed on black background...)

This is the area of the sky I concentrated on photographing Saturday night. Hope I'm not boring you all with the astrophotos, but I've been practising my technique from reading this book.

The three celestial objects approaching one another on October 14, 2013. Contrast was enhanced around the comet to show the details. This photo was stacked from 128 frames of 2" exposure each. (Camera settings: Canon EOS 40D + Sigma 70-300mm @ 190mm, F/5, ISO 1250)

Stack of 20 exposures at 5 seconds, f/1.8, ISO 1600. Processing in DeepSkyStacker. My platform was a cheap rickety aluminum tripod. :)

NGC 6888 as seen at the Golden State Star Party.

Taken with the modified Pentax K10D camera on the Stellarvue SV4. Baader Moon and Skyglow filter used.

 

This is a stack of 58 lights of 10 minutes duration at 400 ISO - best 80% out of 75. A ton of temperature matched darks were used - about 15 or more for each temperature. I found that there were problems with stacking the full frames because of non-optimal centering left uncontrolled or over controlled amp glow at the edges. Removed this issue by doing a custom rectangle and a 2x drizzle.

 

Rest of the processing in PI was easy - masked stretch and then histogram stretch. Not much else needed. I couldn't get the image solver to work on this image.

 

I'll be going to RBA's PI workshop on Sunday and maybe I'll learn something.

Post-processing Techniques Used:

-----------------------------------------------

556 light frames were stacked in DeepSkyStacker with 230 dark frames, 120 bias frames, 95 flat frames and 95 dark flat frames. The resulting stacked TIF image was further processed in PixInsight. Workflow included dynamic crop, background extraction, photometric color calibration, noise reduction with TGV Denoise and Multiscale Median Transform, non-linear stretch, colour saturation, removed magenta colour around stars, star reduction, and contrast enhancement with Local Histogram Equalization, Curves and Histogram Transformation.
