Taken from Oxfordshire, UK, shot during freezing fog/mist!
I was booked to do an astronomy session with our village Beavers group, to help them work towards their Space Exploration Badge. I had planned to take one of our telescopes across so they could all look at some crater shadows. Before I went to do the talk I shot some video of 3 different regions where the shadows were looking really good, then after I got home again I shot the same regions to show how the shadows evolved over that time. The gap between the two imaging sessions was just over 3 hours. In that time, the Sun has risen over Montes Alpes so mountain shadows are visible in the second image which are totally in shadow in the first one. The shadow cast by Mons Piton has shortened, as have the shadows cast along Montes Apenninus and Montes Caucasus. The Sun has also begun to rise over crater Archimedes.

The moon image was almost frame filling as shown in this uncropped image.
I am quite happy with the result considering this moon shot was taken with a 16-year old 6MP camera with no mirrror lock-up function to reduce vibration-induced motion blur during exposure.

Jupiter has 80 known moons and a faint ring system. Its atmosphere is separated into several bands at different latitudes, resulting in turbulence and storms along the boundaries.

This video is constructed from a series of images taken from 0740 UTC to 1016 UTC on 2023-10-04 from the observatory on Cerritos College campus. Each image is from a stack generated in AutoStakkert from an SER file. The individual SER files were 30 s each and taken with a Celestron C14 with 2x Barlow, ZWO ADC, and ZWO ASI224MC camera. The best 49% of frames within each SER were used for each stack. Seeing varied throughout the night, and there are some artifacts from AutoStakkert that appear in some images. After stacking, the images were batch processed in PixInsight to do color correction and wavelet sharpening.
The time between each image is somewhat uneven -- all motion in space is actually very smooth. I threw this together pretty quickly in Adobe Premiere Pro.

Description - Pico Mons (L23) and Plato Crater with it's craterlets (L83) are 2 of the lunar 100 objects I wished to pull out. In my image above, Pico Mons can be seen to the South of Plato crater which is the left on this image. The craterlets inside Plato can just be seen and may take more data to stand out clearly.
The night of the 27th December had much better seeing than my previous nights imaging on 9th December. I also stumbled across an article written by the author of AutoStakkert 3 that I use to align and stack the image. This allowed me to better handle the data and produce a better image to then sharpen. The details above are a testament to my learning and perseverance, from the mottled texture of the mare through to the rile running East (toward the bottom) of Plato.

You can also see the Alpine Valley known as L19 to the East (bottom) with mountains either side. L26 is Mare Frigoris to the North (right) of Plato.
Crater W. Bond can be seen to the North East of Plato (4 o'clock) and is a slightly larger crater filled with lava and a bright tiny crater within it at its eastern (bottom) edge.
Lunar 100 Reference - L23 Pico Mons and Craterlets in Plato. L23 is described as an isolated Imbrium basin-ring fragment. In actuality it is a mountain. L83 refers to to a handful of crater pits at limits of detection. L19 Alpine Valley with its Lunar graben. Grabens are tectonic features that form under extensional stresses. Structurally, they are composed of two normal faults, with a down-dropped block between them. Most grabens are found within the lunar maria near the edges of large impact basins. L26 Mare Frigoris - arcuate mare of uncertain origin. L76 W. Bond crater Large crater degraded by Imbrium ejecta (Info from Atlun for Mac and Wikipedia).

May 15, 2022, a partly cloudy night, with a few opportunities to observe this eclipse.
Taken from Oxfordshire, UK with a Coronado PST H-alpha solar telescope + Celestron 3x Barlow and ASI120MC camera. The telescope was on an EQ5 Pro mount, tracking at solar rate.
2,000 frame video captured with SharpCap, the best 75% stacked using Autostakkert! 3, then processing was done using Lightroom, Photoshop CS2, Fast Stone Image Viewer and Focus Magic.
This was an impressive region of prominence activity on the south eastern limb, and it was amazing to see how the area had changed in the space of an hour. There were several filaments visible on the disc as well.
This is a composite shot of Saturn with a few of its moons. Saturn reached opposition on the night of July 9th and this shot was taken six nights later when the sky was (slightly) less cloudy. It would have been nice to have taken the shot closer to when it reached opposition but this was the first opportunity. However it still looks quite big and bright with plenty of detail visible. The predicted distance of Saturn at opposition was 1,351,000,000 km with its disk measuring 18.4 arcseconds in diameter. We measured Saturn's disk to be 18.1 arcseconds (an expected reduction in size after nearly a week of receding again) and giving us a distance of 1,352,364,750 km. So the calculations seem reasonably accurate.

This Moon was very reluctant towards deconvolution...
I can's see Polaris from my window, so I have used AstroLocator app for iPhone to refine the alignment of the mount. Works good - no need to chase the Moon even at 1 meter focal length.

A composite image of Jupiter with all four of its Galilean moons. This was taken at about 2:00am on April 6th 2018. The shot was processed twice, once to bring out the planet and a second time to bring out the moons; the two images were then blended together. This was part of a series of experimental shots using extension tubes with an x2 Barlow lens to make the planet as large as possible while still preserving some detail - only partially successful in this case but I still think it's a nice image. Jupiter reaches opposition on May 9th and around that time I hope to make a time-lapse of the planet rotating and the moons orbiting (weather and time permitting) so this is something of a test shot to work out which telescope and camera to use.
