Western Veil Nebula, a supernova remnant, is a cloud of heated and ionized gas and dust in the constellation Cygnus (Swan).

The Legacy Series is a special photographic project dedicated to the preservation of the art of film astrophotography.

 

This image is the results of a 75 minute exposure on Kodak E200 transparency film.

 

The Cygnus and Cepheus region rides high in the Summer and Autumn sky in the heart of the northern Milky Way.

 

The Pentax 67 medium format camera and 165mm f/2.8 lens was stopped down to f/4.8. The camera was mounted to an equatorial mounted telescope which tracked the stars by compensating for the Earth's rotation.

The Flickr mapping is once more in error; my geotag is good to ten metres; we are not in Sachsen-Anhalt, we are in Brandenburg.

The long-awaited day came. Finally, we could sit comfortably under a tree and put our beaks to the sun.

Mute Swan cyglets. Families stay together till breeding season starts which will be soon.

Adults of this large swan typically range from 140 to 160 cm (55 to 63 in) long, although can range in extreme cases from 125 to 170 cm, with a 200 to 240 cm wingspan. Males are larger than females and have a larger knob on their bill.

 

The mute swan is one of the heaviest flying birds. In several studies from Great Britain, males (known as cobs) were found to average from about 10.6 to 11.87 kg, with a weight range of 9.2–14.3 kg while the slightly smaller females (known as pens) averaged about 8.5 to 9.67 kg, with a weight range of 7.6–10.6 kg.

This shows the output of the APP program after the automatic mosaic process. APP finds all overlaps (i used 15% for the SGP Frame and Mosaic wizard settings) and positions and the right orientation and distortion correction! I loaded a masterdark, bad pixel map and masterflat together with all the single light frames. Each panel is a single 15 minute H-alpha (7nm) exposure with QHY16200 CCD/ Esprit 100 f5.5 refractor) Again, this Flickr upload is a downscaled version at 12.5%, the full version is 600 megapixels.

 

Still need to do registration and background optimization.

I was on the way to Marsh Hide at Stodmarsh NNR when I came across a pair of swans blocking the path.

I approached slowly stopped and got down to eye level to take the shot.

I then realised that there was a bunch of cygnets behind the adult, so I backed off and went via an alternative route, when I returned fortunately they had moved on.

A wider view of the previous image, in focus this time!! Deneb is the name of the brightest star in this pic with the North American nebula visible below it. These stars can be found high in the summer sky if you are North of the equator that is!!

Looks like last night will be the last clear night for a little bit with hurricane Ida coming through. Hopefully everyone down south is staying safe through this.

 

Here is my HOO version of the Cygnus wall. Probably one of my favorite areas to image because of all of the tiny details in the cloud structures.

The Dragon is not the only spacecraft docked to the Space Station: the trusty Soyuz that I flew in last time is still flying regularly to space and brought Oleg, Pyotr and Mark here just before we arrived. Then we have the Cygnus cargo spacecraft that is very noticeable because of its circular solar wings.

 

Le Dragon n’est pas le seul vaisseau amarré au navire amiral qu’est l’ISS. Les Soyouz (c'est le vaisseau qui m’a amené la dernière fois) effectuent toujours des rotations régulières d’équipage. Celui que vous voyez à gauche de la photo est arrivé avec à son bord Oleg, Pëtr et Mark. Et le Cygus, au centre, nous ravitaille, en tout ce dont nous avons besoin pour assurer la mission. On voit ici ses panneaux solaires circulaires qui se découpent face à la vitre principale de la Cupola.

Cygnus atratus

 

The Black Swan is found through out the southern parts of Australia.

 

This female has chosen to put her nest immediately adjacent to a boardwalk, frequented by hundreds of people each week. She did the same thing last year too - her old nest is only metres away from this one on the other side of the boardwalk. Clearly she is habituated to the presence of people, but it is still a mystery to me why she would choose such a public location!

It's my mandate.

 

Stack of seven three-minute exposures. And not a single airplane crossed the frame during all that time!

 

Probably still my best one.

 

This photograph of a part of the Cygnus constellation reveals a region rich in nebulae around the supergiant star Gamma Cygni (also known as Sadr) and Deneb... By examining the annotated photograph, one can appreciate the vastness of these nebulae in the night sky. Their striking beauty makes them some of the most photographed objects during summer nights.

 

[u]First image[/u] : The emission nebula on the left is partly famous due to its striking resemblance to the North American continent. To the right of the North America Nebula, also known as NGC 7000, there is a less luminous nebula that resembles a pelican, hence its name.

These two emission nebulae each span about 50 light-years in diameter and are located approximately 1,500 light-years from Earth. They are separated by dark clouds that absorb light. From a location with a particularly clear and dark sky, these nebulae can be observed with binoculars. They appear as a small nebulous spot to the southwest of the bright star Deneb in the constellation Cygnus. It is still unknown which stars ionize the hydrogen in these nebulae, giving them their characteristic red hue.

 

[u]Second image[/u] : Sadr, located almost at the center of the image, is a supergiant with 12 times the mass of our Sun and about 150 times its radius. Throughout the image, complex clouds of gas and dust, as well as stars, are displayed. To the left of Sadr is IC 1318, nicknamed the Butterfly Nebula due to its shape resembling two bright wings separated by a long band of dark dust. At the bottom right, the small and bright Crescent Nebula (NGC 6888) can be seen. Located about 5,000 light-years from Earth, this emission nebula was created by the powerful stellar winds of the Wolf-Rayet star WR 136, visible at its center. Even lower, the Soap Bubble Nebula, a faint and difficult-to-photograph planetary nebula, perfectly spherical, can be observed. Discovered in 2007, it is the result of the expulsion of the outer layers of a dying star.

The Cygnus is the flagship of Valuan 1st Admiral Alfonso, and much like Alfonso is more concerned with looking good than being any use in a fight.

  

The plan was the other flagships would flow quite quickly once the Auriga was done since most are based on the same body, but if this has taught me anything it's that those similarities don't go terribly far when it comes to a build! Or rather, even with a solid core to start with, getting the details right is no small job.

  

Ideally the weird blade things projecting from the deck would be far thinner. The arrays above the bridge should be on a single mast, but I couldn't find a way of doing it which wasn't far too thick and ungainly. The bow was a pain in the neck too and involved a lot of compromise - so many better looking techniques just weren't structurally viable.

 

Still, on the whole I'm happy with the result and I'll move on to the next one before I try to perfect this!
