Capturée au foyer d'un Télescope Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrain 280 mm équipé d'un réducteur de focale:F/D 6,3. A la pleine lune la lumière empêche les reliefs. On y découvre quand même au sud le cratère Tycho; Sur la gauche la plus grande mer lunaire: l’océan procellarum ; au dessus de gauche à droite les mers imbrium ,sérénité, Tranquillité et fécondité,
Captured at the hearth of a telescope Celestron Schmidt-Cassegrain 280 mm equipped with a focal reducer: F/D 6.3. At the full moon the light prevents the reliefs. It still discovers the Tycho crater in the south; On the left the largest lunar sea: the Procellarum Ocean; Above left to right the seas Imbrium, serenity, tranquility and fertility,

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!!

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.

One moment of the Solar Eclipse from beautiful Hampton Plantation State Historic Site, in McClellanville, South Carolina. Took my telescope to the park on a wonderful experience, even when the clouds interfered minutes before totality. Image taken with a DSLR through my old Celestron telescope. The spots you see in the middle are sunspots.
Info: Celestron Firstscope 80EQ 900mm f/11 Refractor Telescope. On my crop factor camera turned into a 1,300 mm telephoto, ISO: 200, Mode: Manual, f/11, 1/750 sec, with cable release. Edit on Lightroom CC.

Cette nuit du 13 au 14 juillet, la Lune était à son périgée, c'est à dire la distance minimale avec la Terre, ce qui lui vaut dans les médias ce nom de Super Lune (je passe les différents noms : du tonnerre pour celle de juillet, ou de la rose, des fleurs, etc ...).
Cette nuit à Lune se situait donc à environ 357.000 kms de la Terre (sa distance moyenne étant à 384.000 kms).
Cette Lune était donc plus grosse que d'habitude puisque son diamètre apparent dans le ciel de cette nuit était de 33'35" (sa taille apparente minimale étant de 29'13" lorsqu'elle est au plus loin à son apogée).
A sa distance moyenne, son diamètre est de 31'.
La Lune était donc cette nuit environ 8% plus grosse que sa moyenne et presque 15% plus grosse qu'à son minimum.
La luminosité était elle aussi plus intense qu'à l'accoutumée.
Cette image est le résultat de deux vidéos faites avec le Canon EOS R6 derrière un télescope Celestron C8 avec 2000mm de focale à 02h00 du matin lorsque la Lune était au plus haut dans le ciel plein sud.
Les deux vidéos ont été traitées avec les Logiciels Pipp, Autostackket3, Registax6, Photoshop et Lightroom pour aboutir à cette image finale de cette pleine Lune du 14 juillet en couleur.
