I've updated this image after doing more post-processing.
Getting only one night per month due to weather and moon phase doesn't provide much opportunity these days but this was my best target this morning. All things considered, it turned out okay.

Description
only 4 subs from the dslr + h-alpha filter, stacked in DSS and the red channel separated into a grayscale image, have seen more detail in these four subs than 60+ subs in normal OSC so i'm pretty convinced by the ha-rgb approach even with a non-monochrome dslr its still - to me, - worth doing :)

Scoperta nel 1779 da Pierre Méchain, M63 è nota come "Galassia Girasole". Si tratta di una delle galassie a spirale più belle del cielo settentrionale e si trova nella Costellazione dei Cani da Caccia. Dista circa 37 milioni di anni luce e presenta bracci piuttosto compatti e ricchi di particolari, specialmente molte regioni di idrogeno ionizzato ben visibili perché di colore rosa acceso.
18 ore di pose guidate da 10 minuti a cui ho aggiunto quasi 15 ore con filtro dual band Antlia ALP-T da 5nm, telescopio newton 150/600 con correttore Tecnosky 0.95x, camera Tecnosky Vision 571C, montatura Ioptron GEM45, elaborazione Pixinsight.
Discovered in 1779 by Pierre Méchain, M63 is known as the "Sunflower Galaxy". It is one of the most beautiful spiral galaxies in the northern sky and is located in the constellation of Canes Venatici. It is about 37 million light years away and has rather compact arms rich in details, especially many regions of ionized hydrogen clearly visible because of their bright pink color.
18 hours of 10-minute guided exposures to which I added almost 15 hours with a 5nm Antlia ALP-T dual band filter, 150/600 newton telescope with Tecnosky 0.95x corrector, Tecnosky Vision 571C camera, Ioptron GEM45 mount, Pixinsight processing.
The galactic center of the Milky Way rises gracefully over the cemetery of Normalville, PA as Mars shines brightly on the left. This is a panorama of 10 images stitched together to capture this much beauty in one.

因季節和地點關係，那幾天大小麥都剛好在樹梢上下位置…只湊到一個小時的曝光好像太對不起這個南天的標誌性天體。
離我們約十六萬光年，大麥哲倫星系是一個環繞銀河系運轉的衛星星系。結構似乎有一點棒旋星系的痕跡，有推測是因為受到銀河系的重力擾動，而成為現在的不規則形態。

Photographed with my brand new toy - I had to wait several months for it... the Zwo Seestar S50 Smart Telescope.
After a few rainy days, the first photo of a galaxy:
M33 is a spiral galaxy in the triangle constellation in the northern fixed star sky between the constellations Andromeda and Aries. After the Andromeda Galaxy, it is the second-brightest spiral galaxy in the night sky and one of our galaxy closest.
On the left edge of the photo, the interrupted light trail of satellite(s) is visible (Starlink?).
The photo consists of many individual images, each exposed for 10 seconds over a period of 48 minutes and automatically stacked by the Smart Telescope. This suppresses image noise and reveals more details - the longer the recording time, the clearer the result.
I then edited the resulting photo with Luminar Neo and jpg-Illuminator.
===
Fotografiert mit meinem brandneuen Spielzeug - ich musste mehrere Monate darauf warten... das ZWO Seestar S50 Smart Teleskop.
Hier ist nach einigen Regentagen das erste Foto mit einer Galaxie:
M33 (Dreiecksgalaxie oder Triangulumgalaxie) ist eine Spiralgalaxie im Sternbild "Dreieck" am nördlichen Fixsternhimmel zwischen den Sternbildern Andromeda und Widder. Sie ist nach dem Andromedanebel die zweithellste Spiralgalaxie am Nachthimmel und eine der unserer Galaxie nächstgelegenen.
Am linken Rand des Fotos ist die unterbrochene Lichtspur eines oder mehrerer Satelliten sichtbar (Starlink?).
Das Foto besteht aus vielen Einzelbildern, die während eines Zeitraums von 48 Minuten jeweils 10 Sekunden belichtet und durch das Smart Telekop automatisch "gestackt" (gestapelt) wurden. Dadurch wird das Bildrauschen unterdrückt und es werden mehr Details sichtbar - je länger die Aufnahmezeit, desto klarer also das Ergebnis. Danach habe ich das so entstandene Foto mit Luminar Neo und jpg-Illuminator etwas nachbearbeitet.

First time ever using my new CEM25P, and my imaging telescope still not arrived yet. Then I used this little mak. :)
Is kinda funny watch you guys taking 30 second frames on M42, while I need at least 2 minutes!

🌌 NGC 1097 — The Cosmic Keyhole 🌌
🔭 Scope & details:
Lights: 31x300" Luminance, 38x300" B, 34x300" G, 33x300" R

NGC 1097 is a spectacular barred spiral galaxy located in the constellation Fornax, at a distance of approximately 45 million light-years.
Its most striking feature is the bright circumnuclear star-forming ring encircling the galactic core, powered by gas and dust funneled inward along the prominent central bar.
This inflow of material fuels intense star formation and possibly feeds the supermassive black hole at the galaxy’s center.
Beyond the ring, faint spiral arms rich in dust lanes and blue star-forming regions stretch outward, while subtle tidal features hint at past gravitational interactions with nearby companions.
The surrounding field is populated by numerous background galaxies, adding depth and emphasizing the vast scale of this cosmic structure.
Physical & Observational Data
✨ Constellation: Fornax
📏 Distance: ~45 million light-years
💫 Apparent Magnitude: ~9.5
📐 Apparent Size: ~9.3′ × 6.3′
🌌 Galaxy Type: Barred Spiral (SBb)
🌀 Notable Features: Circumnuclear starburst ring, central bar, dust lanes, tidal structures
✨ At the heart of NGC 1097, gravity sculpts rings and spirals — a cosmic dance where matter flows, stars ignite, and time itself leaves its trace.
Alessandro Motta | @ale_motta_astrofotografia
M101, également appelée NGC 5457 ou galaxie du Moulinet, est une galaxie spirale située dans la Grande Ourse et distante d'environ 22,8 millions d'années-lumière.
M101 est vue exactement du dessus. Le diamètre de cette galaxie (170 000 années-lumière) est 70 % plus grand que celui de la Voie lactée (100 000 années-lumière).
Elle est assez difficile à observer, et nécessite un télescope de grand diamètre et de bonnes conditions.

We were lucky enough to have a cottage where we could capture and contemplate this landscape right from our balcony. The star trail was created from 210 individual photos combined to give the effect of movement. Let say that it is tough not to get tired of contemplating starry skies!

Ce filé d'étoiles tombe sur le massif du Mont-Mégantic visible au bas de la photo. Nous avions la chance d'avoir un chalet d'où nous pouvions capturer et contempler ce paysage assis sur le balcon. Le filé d'étoiles a été créé à partir de 210 photos individuelles combinées afin de donner l'effet de mouvement. Avouez qu'on ne se lasse pas de s'émerveiller devant les ciels étoilés!
À bientôt,
Fred

The Neighbourhood of Omega Centauri
Omega Centauri or NGC 5139, the largest globular cluster of our milky galaxy nearly 15000 LY away and containing more than 10 million stars. (Seen at the centre of the picture)
Accompanying it are few other deep sky objects as listed:
1. NGC 5128 or Centaurus A Galaxy
2. NGC 4945 or The Tweezers Galaxy
3. NGC 5286 Globular Cluster
This is a single exposure cropped shot from Canon 700D/50mm F1.8 tracked on AstroTrac.
Exif: 60secs/F2.8/ISO1600
This one has been a struggle. Mostly with imaging time and the weather. It's been crap in the UK of late. When it was clear, the moon was right in the same area.

110*180s images stacked in Siril and the rest of the work done in Ps.

Usual setup of late, Askar 71f with the 0.75 reducer, Optolong L-eNhance filter, Sky-Watcher Gti driven by an ASI Air and a ZWO533MC Pro doing imaging duties.

A nice area of sky in my opinion :) lots of emission nebulosity around, especially with the hydrogen alpha filter! this is Ha filtered capture of ngc6914 in mono - slightly different angle as the other ngc6914's so i didnt add it :P just processed separately - doesnt look too bad :) about 4 x 8 min and one 10min exp ED80/350D / EQ6 h-alpha 12nm filter uided by finderscope 9x50mm phd2
Messier 42 The Great Nebula in Orion.
Third try at this DSO in the middle of light-polluted Singapore. Clear weather. No lens fogging problems unlike the first two attempts. Only problem was satellite signals keep disconnecting at this location. Only few subs were collected as a result. Despite so, the resultant stacked photo definitely looks better than previous tries. Running Man Nebula is vaguely visible on the right.

天上的一顆心
心臟星雲 (Heart Nebula, IC1805)，是銀河系英仙臂的星雲，星雲深處其實有很多值得拍攝的細節，可惜拍攝時間有限，未能將更多細節重現。心臟星雲在東北方向上升，最高只會升至 60 度左右，在香港的重光害環境下可能會較難拍攝，需借助光害濾鏡的幫忙才能事半功倍。

天鵝座廣角
這一次用 50mm 來拍拍廣角一點的天鵝座一帶。照片近中央有北美和塘鵝星雲；藍白色的光星是夏季大三角之一，也是天鵝座最亮的天津四，左上角也隱約看得到東西面紗星雲。這一帶的星星又密又多，對於 50mm 鏡頭好像有點太擠迫了…大家有興趣也可看看早前張貼過的 135mm 照片比較一下。

Seagull Nebula (IC 2177)
A broad expanse of glowing gas and dust presents a bird-like visage to astronomers from planet Earth, suggesting its popular moniker - The Seagull Nebula. This portrait of the cosmic bird covers a 1.6 degree wide swath across the plane of the Milky Way, near the direction of Sirius, alpha star of the constellation Canis Major. Of course, the region includes objects with other catalog designations: notably NGC 2327, a compact, dusty emission region with an embedded massive star that forms the bird's head (aka the Parrot Nebula). Dominated by the reddish glow of atomic hydrogen, the complex of gas and dust clouds with bright young stars spans over 100 light-years at an estimated 3,800 light-year distance.

The Messier 8 (aka Lac III-13, NGC 6523, BCA 237 or Sh 2-25), is definitely the protagonist of this rich nebular and stellar field in the Sagittarius constellation, near the centre of our galaxy.
With approximate apparent dimensions of 45’x30’ and a distance of about 4-5 thousand light-years, this very bright emission nebula has a real extension of nearly 100 light-years, factors that make it visible to the naked eye even in suburban areas, and a good target for binoculars or small telescopes, although it takes a somewhat big telescope (10-inch would be very fine) in a dark sky site to fully reveal its splendour to a visual observer – as I had the unforgettable opportunity to witness via a 11-inch SCT from a Bortle 2 sky site.
But the Lagoon Nebula, as it is popularly known, is surrounded by several other nebulae and HII regions, such as Sh 2-29, Sh 2-31, and Sh 2-32, to the bottom left, and M8 itself also encompasses a bright open star cluster, NGC 6530 as well as the famous Hourglass Nebula, at its luminous core, and some dark nebulae showing themselves as beautiful dark filaments cutting through their way along the field, partially blocking our view of the shimmering nebula behind.
This colour combination is the renowned Hubble Palette or SHO (Sulphur-Hydrogen-Oxygen), by which the narrowband SII captured data is assigned to the Red channel, the H-alpha data to Green, and the OIII to Blue. I also used the H-alpha as Luminance channel for this image.
Curiously, this SHO palette, at least in my opinion, makes the “Lagoon Nebula” an even more appropriate name for this object, perhaps because of the blue huge central region surrounded by the golden/brown border.
Please enjoy the view!
Cloudy weather in several moonless nights and processing turned this a work of multiple months.
This image was accomplished with the collaboration of my dear friend Romualdo Caldas.
And, being my inaugural image in narrowband and the first one processed in part with PixInsight, I would like to thank some other people who helped me in those regards: Rafael Compassi, Maicon Germiniani, Ernande Júnior, Gabriel Santos and Luiz Duczmal.

A Nebulosa da Lagoa em Hubble Palette (SHO) e adjacências
A Messier 8 (M8, também conhecida como Lac III-13, NGC 6523, BCA 237 ou Sh 2-25) é definitivamente a nebulosa a protagonizar esse rico campo estelar na constelação do Sagitário, próxima ao centro da nossa galáxia. Com as dimensões aparentes aproximadas de 45’x30’ e uma distância de 4 a 5 milhares de anos-luz da Terra, essa brilhante nebulosa de emissão tem uma extensão real de quase 100 anos-luz, fatores que a tornam visível a olho nu desde até mesmo áreas suburbanas de grandes cidades, e um bom alvo de observação para binóculos e pequenos telescópios, embora seja desejável um telescópio um tanto maior (10 polegadas seria bem razoável) e num céu escuro, para revelar totalmente seu esplendor a um observador visual – como eu mesmo tive a inesquecível oportunidade de testemunhar via um telescópio SCT de 11 polegadas em um local de céu Bortle 2.
Mas a Nebulosa da Lagoa, como é popularmente conhecida, é cercada de várias outras nebulosas e regiões HII, como as Sh 2-29, Sh 2-31 e Sh 2-32, vistas em grupo no região inferior esquerda da imagem. E a própria M8 também hospeda um brilhante aglomerado aberto de estrelas, o NGC 6530, bem como a Nebulosa da Ampulheta, que lhe serve de radiante núcleo, além de algumas nebulosas escuras que se apresentam como belos filamentos negros cortando seu caminho ao longo do campo de visão, parcialmente bloqueando nossa visão da fulgurante nebulosa logo atrás.
Essa combinação de cores é a conhecida Hubble Palette (ou Aquarela do Hubble – ficando assim famosa por ser empregada pelos processadores de imagens do famoso telescópio espacial), ou SHO (Enxofre-Hidrogênio-Oxigênio, na sigla em latim e inglês). Nessa combinação, os dados capturados em banda estreita de SII são atribuídos ao canal Vermelho do conjunto RGB (Vermelho-Verde-Azul), enquanto as capturas na faixa do Hidrogênio-alfa vão para o canal Verde, e as em Oxigênio-III vão para o Azul. Para essa imagem, eu também usei o H-alfa como canal de Luminância.
Curiosamente, esta aquarela SHO – ao menos na minha opinião – torna o nome “Nebulosa da Lagoa” ainda mais apropriado para este objeto, talvez pelo fato de tornar a imensa região central azul, e cercada pelas margens em tons marrons/dourados.
Por favor, desfrute da imagem em alta resolução.
Tempo nublado em muitas noites e o longo período de processamento fizeram deste um trabalho de múltiplos meses.
Essa imagem foi possível devido à colaboração do caro amigo Romualdo Caldas.
E, sendo minha imagem inaugural em banda estreita e a primeira processada com auxílio parcial do PixInsight, eu gostaria de agradecer a outras pessoas que me ajudaram nesse processo: Rafael Compassi, Maicon Germiniani, Ernande Júnior, Gabriel Santos e Luiz Duczmal.
Hey! This is my first time capturing The Andromeda Galaxy (M31), I’m pleased with the results even that the Galaxy is too big to my telescope. Equipment: Celestron 6SLT , Canon 60D, Celestron Focal reducer 6.3. Software processing: Sequator and Lightroom. Imaging information: light frames 30@30” flat frames 30/30” dark frames 30@30” bais frames 30@30”
The Leo Triplet is a group of galaxies a mere 35 million light-years away in the constellation Leo (not surprisingly). It consists of galaxies M65, M66, and NGC 3628.
Had a lot of trouble with this. My recently overhauled mount, which I was so proud of, decided to go back to how it was before, or worse, so I had to bin 32 of the 60 subs I took. Also had terrible amp glow so this is quite severely cropped to get rid of it. For some reason the darks didn't do their job. Anyway, not a bad result considering the short exposure.
Reprocessed here
24 March 2011
200p, EQ5 unguided
Nikon D70 full spectrum prime focus
28 x 60sec, iso 1600
darks (useless ones), bias and flats.
Stacked in DSS processed in CS5
This image was taken using my skywatcher 127 telescope and my canon 550d. This is just a single image with no stacking. Not focused the best, think I can improve but I am pleased to take my first photograph of the nebula.

Messier 26 open star cluster, at right, a bright binocular/telescopic star cluster, along with the fainter and small globular star cluster NGC 6712 at upper left, which itself is paired with the faint planetary nebula IC 1295, the greenish spot left of NGC 6712. All are in the constellation of Scutum, embedded in the rich Scutum Starcloud. The bright red star at top is S Scuti.
This is a stack of 8 x 6 minute exposures at f/4.4 with the Canon 6D at ISO 800 and TMB 92mm Apo refractor with the Borg 0.85x flattener/reducer. Taken from the winter home near Silver City, New Mexico.

A Faint Comet Rising Over the Arizona Horizon
What happens when a comet barely clears the horizon before dawn? On April 9, under the dark skies of Arizona, Comet C/2025 R3 was captured just moments after rising into view. From the Desert Bloom Observatory, the comet appeared extremely low in the sky—its faint glow filtered through thick layers of Earth’s atmosphere.
Despite the challenge, only seven exposures of 120 seconds each were secured before the comet was lost again to the brightening twilight. The result reveals a delicate, diffuse coma with hints of a developing tail, softly emerging from the horizon’s glow. Atmospheric extinction and scattering near the horizon reduce contrast and color, giving the comet its subdued and ghostly appearance.
Comets like C/2025 R3 are icy visitors from the outer Solar System. As they approach the Sun, solar radiation causes their volatile materials to sublimate, forming glowing comae and streaming tails that can stretch millions of kilometers across space.
Capturing such a fleeting target requires precise timing, patience, and a bit of luck. This image stands as a testament to the challenge of low-altitude astrophotography—where even a few frames can preserve a moment otherwise lost to the horizon.

The Best Movies of 2006.
01. A Scanner Darkly / Помутнение — 10/10.
Криминальная sci-fi драма, от Richard Linklater, на основе позднего автобиографичного произведения от Philip K. Dick, который заодно написал Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? — по нему сняли всем известный Blade Runner. В фильме рассказывается о секретном расследовании путей распространения новейшего нркт, поэтому фильм снят в необычной полуанимционно-галлюциногенной манере, среди персонажей отметились Keanu Reeves, постепенно сходящий с ума двойной агент, который вынужден сам принимать этот препарат, чтобы внедриться в банду дилеров и «в свободное время» страдающий от неразделённой любви к Вайноне Райдер, собственно Winona в майке с глубоким декольте 💕 — слегка упоротая стерва-кокаинщица (на первый взгляд), далее Robert Downey, Jr. — философствующий дилер-шизофреник, который и сам перманентно под этим делом, и наконец Woody Harrelson — психопат-параноик, в любой непонятной ситуаций закидывающийся колёсами — причём в итоге всё окажется вообще не так как казалось поначалу. Отчасти в подобной атмосфере снят ещё один мегафильм — Enter the Void (Gaspar Noé, 2009) с Paz de la Huerta, хотя он намного более атмосферный и скорее о переселении душ, тоже посмотрите если пропустили. Ну и «Страх и ненависть в Лас-Вегасе», который многие считают бредом, хотя там млрд аллюзий на контркультуру 60-х.
02. Factory Girl / Я соблазнила Энди Уорхола — 10/10.
Биография культовой актрисы Edie Sedgwick (1943-1971) (потрясающая роль Sienna Miller), плюс циничный Andy Warhol (Guy Pearce), немного пафосный Bob Dylan (Hayden Christensen), который постоянно курит косяки задвигая философски-поэтические телеги, редактор Vogue (Ileana Douglas), и даже великие The Velvet Underground с Nico (Meredith Ostrom)! настоятельно рекомендую.
03. Inland Empire / Внутренняя империя — 10/10.
Мистический опус Д.Линча. Внутренняя Империя - это регион в Калифорнии. Именно там разворачиваются основные действия картины, рассказывающей о загадочной женщине, попавшей в беду. Лора Дерн играет Никки, актрису, которой предложили роль в фильме режиссёра Кингсли Стюарта (Джереми Айронс). Её партнёром по картине выступает Дэвон (Джастин Теру), которого режиссёр предупреждает об одержимом муже Никки и просит держать съёмки в секрете. По сюжету снимаемого фильма Никки должна сыграть Сью, а Дэвон - Билли, и оба персонажа должны начать любовный роман. В самом начале съёмок они узнают, что сценарий, который основан на польской народной легенде про цыган, является ремейком фильма, который не был доснят до конца, потому что игравшие в нём главные роли актёры были убиты.
04. This Is England / Это Англия — 10/10.
Моментально ставший культовым фильм Шейна Медоуза, рассказывает об английских скинхедах 80-х. 12-летний Шон Филд потерял любимого отца в Фолклендской войне. Подравшись со школьным задирой, он бредёт домой, и встречает в туннеле группу скинов, вливаясь в их тусовку.
05. Gradiva (C'est Gradiva qui vous appelle) / Вас зовёт Градива — 10/10.
Атмосферно-эротическая криминальная драма-мистификация от Алена Роб-Грийе, где профессор востоковед, исследуя в Марокко Североафриканский период работы Делакруа, получает редкие рисунки художника в таинственном секретном Театре страданий, после чего его разум теряется в галлюцинациях с сексуальным подтекстом — его начинает преследовать видение красивой женщины, Градивы, которая была музой Делакруа, на фоне марроканских лабиринтов. Нелинейный фильм-загадка!
06. The Departed / Отступники — 9/10.
Фильм Мартина Скорcезе, ремейк гонконгского криминального триллера Двойная рокировка (2002). Криминальный босс Фрэнк Костелло (Джек Николсон) берёт под своё крыло десятилетнего Колина Салливана, собираясь в будущем сделать его своим человеком в полиции. Проходят годы, и Салливан (Мэтт Деймон) оканчивает школу полиции штата Массачусетс. Вместе с ним там учился Билли Костиган (Леонардо Ди Каприо). Скорcезе наконец получил Оскар, давно заслуженный, за Казино, Авиатор и Таксиста, например.
07. Om Gud vill / По высшей воле — 9/10.
Красивая романтическая мелодрама, Швеция 70х, Хуан (мигрант) встречает вечером на остановке красивую блондинку (Нина Перссон, вокалистка The Cardigans), которая становится для него смыслом жизни. Amir Chamdin режиссер родился в Стокгольме, хотя его мать финка, а отец из Сирии, интересно, что шведка Nina Persson по фильму играет вокалистку финской группы Juli & The Monoliths, отца Амира звали Хуан.
08. Last King of Scotland / Последний король Шотландии — 9/10.
Великая роль Фореста Уитакера, о молодом докторе из Шотландии (Джеймс Макэвой), который приехал в Уганду, случайно став вскоре ближайшим советником президента Иди Амина, кровавого тирана.
09. The Prestige / Престиж — 9/10.
Двое британских иллюзионистов Роберт Энджер, выступающий под псевдонимом Великий Дантон (Хью Джекман), и Альфред Борден (Кристиан Бэйл), были друзьями до тех пор, пока при выполнении опасного трюка не утонула жена Энджера (как считал Энджер, по вине Бордена). С тех пор двое становятся заклятыми врагами и соперниками, устраивая друг другу диверсии, и уводят друг у друга любовниц. Бывшая помощница Энджера, а ныне любовница Бордена Оливия (Скарлетт Йоханссон) приносит своему бывшему работодателю (который отверг её любовь), дневник своего любовника. Ключевым словом для расшифровки дневника является слово Тесла. В роли Теслы отметился сам Bowie!
10. Paris, je t'aime! / Париж я люблю тебя — 9/10.
Альфонсо Куарон, Гас Ван Сэнт, Вальтер Саллес, Фредерик Обуртин, Гуриндер Чадха, Изабель Койшет, Ричард ЛаГравенес, Винченцо Натали, Бруно Подалиде, Том Тыквер, Итан Коэн, Джоэл Коэн, Уэс Крэйвен, Оливье Ассайас, Жерар Депардье, Кристофер Дойл, Александр Пэйн - киноальманах, состоящий из восемнадцати историй о разных проявлениях любви, каждая из которых происходит в определённом округе Парижа.
11. The Boss of It All / Самый главный босс — 9/10.
Фарс и чёрный юмор от Ларса Фон Триера.
12. The Devil Wears Prada / Дьявол носит Prada — 8/10.
Комедийная драма, мечтающая стать журналисткой провинциальная девушка Андреа (Энн Хэтэуэй) по окончании университета получает должность помощницы всесильной Миранды Пристли (Мерил Стрип), деспотичного редактора одного из крупнейших нью-йоркских журналов мод (прототипом стала властная Анна Винтур, редактор Vogue), коллегой/конкуренткой Энн Хэтэуэй по фильму является красавица Эмили Блант, плюс звёзды типа Валентино и Хайди Клум в эпизодах.
13. Мне не больно — 8/10.
Красивая мелодрама с Ренатой Литвиновой в фильме нашего гения Алексея Балабанова, немного перекликается с фильмом «Осень в Нью-Йорке» (с Гир и Райдер).
14. Man cheng jin dai huang jin jia / Проклятие золотого цветка — 8/10.
Китай. X век. Из долгого похода возвращается император. Он поражен холодной встречей придворных. Императрица тщательно скрывает тайную связь с кронпринцем. Двор погряз в любовных и политических интригах, оплетающих дворец, словно гирлянды золотых хризантем.
15. Casino Royale / Казино Ройаль — 8/10.
Одна из лучших серий бондиады, как теперь стало ясно, во многом благодаря участию как всегда роскошной Евы Грин и Бонда - Крейга.
16. Fur: An Imaginary Portrait of Diane Arbus / Мех: Воображаемый портрет Дианы Арбус — 8/10.
Из окна своей квартиры в Нью-Йорке Диана Арбус (Николь Кидман) видит фигуру в маске — таинственного нового соседа (Роберт Дауни мл.). Заинтригованная Диана хочет его сфотографировать и отправляется к нему в квартиру. С этого и начинается ее путешествие, которое раскрывает самые потаенные секреты Дианы, пробуждает в ней гения и направляет на путь выдающегося художника.
17. Red Road / Жилой комплекс «Ред Роуд» — 8/10.
Драма, где каждый день Джеки (оператор камер наблюдения в Глазго) приглядывает за небольшой частью мира, оберегая людей, которые живут под ее пристальным взглядом. Однажды на ее мониторе появляется мужчина, которого она не ожидала увидеть снова, и которого она больше никогда не хотела видеть. Реж. Андреа Арнольд.
18. Goya's Ghosts / Призраки Гойи — 8/10.
Фильм Милоша Формана, cюжет разворачивается во времена правления Карла IV, придворным живописцем которого был знаменитый Франсиско Гойя. На заре наполеоновских войн святая инквизиция активизируется в Испании. В числе прочих в её застенки попадает Инес - дочь богатого купца Томаса Бельбатуа, которую можно было бы даже назвать музой Гойи, так как именно её лицо живописец с регулярностью изображал на картинах и фресках. 8/10.
19. Apocalypto / Апокалипсис — 8/10.
Брутальный эпик фильм Гибсона, о временах Майя, хотя потомки индейцев позже подали простест — дескать их предки изображены слишком жестокими.
20. Остров / Ostrov — 8/10.
Павел Лунгин и Пётр Мамонов, драма об искуплении, получившая множество призов, снимали фильм на побережье Белого моря в Карелии.
21. Zwartboek / Черная книга — 8/10.
Paul Verhoeven снял отличный триллер с Carice van Houten (позже она станет знаменитой ведьмой в Game of Thrones).
22. Scoop / Сенсация — 7/10.
Скарлетт Йоханссон (легкомысленная студентка журфака) и Хью Джекман (английский аристократ), плюс Вуди Аллен собственной персоной, в образе фокусника-неврастеника. Фильм-фарс насмешка над двойным дном британской белой кости, поданный под соусом некоего сенсационного расследования.
23. Babel / Вавилон — 7/10.
Многослойная драма с Питтом от Алехандро Гонсалеса Иньярриту. В фильме развиваются три основные сюжетные линии и действует множество персонажей. Всё это показывает зрителю картину нашего мира как один большой Вавилон, в котором людям приходится находить общий язык: добиваться своего и уметь слушать других.
24. Interview / Интервью — 7/10.
Реж Стив Бушеми, он же в одной из главных ролей, но основным украшением картины несомненно стала Сиенна Миллер. Матерый, циничный, но не слишком удачливый политический журналист Пьер получает задание взять интервью у актрисы с русским именем Катя — звезды мыльных опер и B-хорроров.
25. Fast Food Nation / Нация фастфуда — 7/10.
Аврил Лавин, Брюс Уиллис и Патрицией Аркетт, а также Итан Хоук и Крис Кристофферсон, крутой состав в этом грустном фильме, о безнадёжной судьбе мекисканских нелегальных эмигрантов, которые вынуждены работать на мясоперерабатывающем заводе Макдональдса, около мексиканской границы. Аврилка тут защищает бедных коровок, и хочет их выпустить на свободу (но они не убегают) - есть пара смешных моментов и с участием прекрасной Патриции Аркетт и Итана Хоука. На одном из фестивалей зрители аплодировали стоя в конце.
26. The Illusionist / Илююзионист — 7/10.
Романтическая история с налётом магии, с Эдвардом Нортоном, про иллюзиониста, который показывает публике невиданные фокусы, которые кажутся не иначе как волшебством.
27. Lake House / Дом у озера — 7/10.
Красивая мистическая любовная мелодрама с Кеану Ривзом и Сандрой Баллок.
28. The Painted Veil / Разрисованная вуаль — 7/10.
Экранизация одноимённого романа британского писателя Сомерсета Моэма, Эдвард Нортон и Наоми Уоттс.
29. The Da Vinci Code / Код Да Винчи — 7/10.
Гарвардского профессора Роберта Лэнгдона подозревают в чудовищном преступлении, которого он не совершал. Лэнгдон знакомится с криптографом парижской полиции Софи Невё и вместе с ней пытается раскрыть тайну, которая может подорвать могущество католической церкви. Том Хэнкс, Одри Тоту, Иэн Маккеллен, Жан Рено, Юрген Прохнов - не дадут вам заскучать, фильм собрал огромную кассу и подвергся сокрушительной критике со стороны религиозных организаций.
30. High School Musical / Классный мюзикл — 6/10.
Ванильный тенейджерский диснеевский мюзикл, который стал невероятно популярен благодаря песням-хитам из него. В ролях будущие звёзды: Зак Эфрон (19), Ванесса Энн Хадженс (18), Эшли Тисдейл (21).
31. Lucky Number Slevin / Счастливое число Слевина — 6/10.
Джош Хартнетт, Брюс Уиллис, Бен Кингсли, Стэнли Туччи, Морган Фриман и неплохой криминальный триллер с закрученным сюжетом.
32. Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest / Пираты Карибского моря: Сундук мертвеца — 6/10.
Вновь оказавшись в ирреальном мире, лихой капитан Джек Воробей неожиданно узнает, что является должником легендарного капитана «Летучего Голландца» Дэйви Джонса. Джек должен в кратчайшие сроки решить эту проблему, иначе ему грозит вечное проклятие и рабское существование после смерти. В ролях всё те же Джонни Депп, Орландо Блум и Кира Найтли.
33. Mission: Impossible III / Миссия невыполнима — 6/10.
Приключенческий боевик, в ролях Том Круз, Филип Сеймур Хоффман, Винг Рэймс, Мишель Монаган, Джонатан Рис-Майерс, Мишель Монаган. Пишут что Круз получил $75 млн, притом что бюджет был $150 млн, а собрали $400 млн.
34. The Lookout / Обман — 5/10.
Джозеф Гордон-Левитт, подававший большие надежды, попадает в автомобильную катастрофу и теряет память, cтав инвалидом, он зарабатывает на жизнь ночным уборщиком в банке, параллельно лидер преступной группировки планирует ограбление этого самого банка и вербует слабоумного уборщика себе в помощники.
35. Basic Instinct 2 / Основной инстинкт 2: Жажда риска — 4/10.
При всей моей любви к Шэрон Стоун, это полный провал, опус не идёт ни в какое сравнение с абсолютно культовым триллером Верховена — Basic Instinct (1992), название тут не поменяли очевидно только из маркетинговых соображений.

Couldn't resist this. Only found out about this last night (tonight) and as it was clear I felt obliged!
For those that don't know - or don't care :) - a supernova is a star that has come to the end of its life and exploded
On the left is the image I took on 3 May, and to the right is the quick and dirty image I've just taken. The supernova is kind of obvious (more so with the yellow lines pointing to it!)
The "surrounding" stars are in our galaxy, probably just thousands of light years away. The supernova, equally as bright, is in M51, the Whirlpool Galaxy, and is about 31 million light years away. Which also means of course that it went supernova 31 million years ago. Fascinating stuff. :)
Only Lovers Left Alive / Выживут только любовники (Jim Jarmusch, 2013).
Tilda Swinton, Tom Hiddleston, Mia Wasikowska, John Hurt.
По-моему Джармуш снял шедевральное произведение! Правда, возможно предназначенное для определённой аудитории (декаденствующих эстетов)) - фильм-сон, где богиня по имени Тильда (в смысле Ева), скользит со своим возлюбленным (его совершенно случайно зовут Адам) сквозь пространство-время, созерцая красоту мира под космический drone/ambient - очень люблю подобные работы, за их символизм-минимализм и красоту, думаю - не маловато ли ему будет проставленных 9/10?
Кстати, саундтрек к этому фильму выиграл приз в Каннах, а музыку написали совместно голландский композитор Jozef Van Wissem и Jim Jarmusch, проект носит название SQÜRL — так что послушайте хотя бы музыку: FLAC, раз не хотите сам фильм посмотреть.
9/10.

Rosette Nebula as seen on Nov 25 and 26 over two nights of capturing in the back yard. I was testing flexure fixes and needed a target that would be useful. This object is near the equator and thus any issues with RA would show up best here.
Equipment used for this effort:

Full spectrum modified Pentax K10D camera with cooler (Camera temps ranged from 6 to 9 C)
SSF6 flattener with IDAS LPR filter
Losmandy G11 with Gemini 2 and PEC turned on
Guided with Maxim and SSAG on SV70ED
Data set:
32 lights, 45 darks, 256 bias, 35 flats
I've also learned a few new things about the peculairities of the image data I capture. Because I'm using a cooled, full spectrum converted CCD based DSLR, the noise profile is a bit strange. There is amp glow that is non-linear. So far, I've learned that Maxim DL is the best tool for me to use to calibrate the source files. This does a nice job of removing the amp glow, although sometimes it does not do a great job on the hot pixels. It gets nearly all of them, but the biggest ones still come through.
I've been stacking the FIT files from Maxim using Deep Sky Stacker 3.3.3 beta 47. It does a great job of catching the hot pixels and does the right job of debayering the FIT files. I've recently found that my color settings for the debayer process were off by a large margin. I found that by reducing the blue level significantly and bumping up the red level the resulting cyan colored ringing on the brightest stars all but disappears. This has significantly helped the next step of processing in Pix Insight.
Stacked in DSS with Sigma Clip settings of Kappa 2 with 5 iterations on the best 90% giving 28 lights. This gives 4 hours and 40 minutes of integration time. Exported as 32 bit FIT file.
In PI, now that the data is in much better condition, I've had better results with using the basic tools. In order, I run:
Dynamic Crop to trim bad areas from the mosaic from DSS
Assisted Color Calibration
DBE with large sample areas
Masked Stretch script to get to a higher median level
Removed green using SCNR
Histogram Stretch to spread out the results
ADCNR with the built-in masking (I've tried using it twice with good results)
Unsharp Mask on the Luminance CIE Y to tighten up the stars
One more pass on the Assisted Color Calibration with a strong saturation boost value of 3
Dark Structure Enhance script did a nice job of increasing the contrast
Final export to TIFF and then into LR3. There I added a value of 1 to the blacks and 10 to the Clarity, Vibrance, and Saturation each. In the past, I've done Sharpness and Noise Reduction. I don't think this is necessary for this example. I also touched up a spot left from a missing set of flats - I missed getting flats after the first day's data and there was a big dust mote on the CCD.
Here's the platesolve output from PI:

The Sunflower Galaxy, M63 aka NGC 5055 is in the constellation Canes Venatici. It's about 37 million light years away and is part of the M51 Group which, not surprisingly, includes M51.
This was an absolute pig to process. It's not hugely bright and needs a lot more than the 50 minutes I was able to give it. Still - I can cross it off the list now! :)
4 June 2011
200p, EQ5 unguided
Nikon D70 full spectrum prime focus
50 x 60sec
iso 1600
darks, bias and flats.
Stacked in DSS processed in CS5
Sh2-155 s a diffuse nebula in the constellation Cepheus, within a larger nebula complex containing emission, reflection, and dark nebulosity. At an estimated distance of 725 parsecs (2400 ly), Sh2-155 is an ionized H II region with ongoing star formation activity.
SkyWatcher 80ED, IDAS NBZ dual-narrowband filter
112 * 300s lights
128 darks, flats and bias calibration frames
At 9hr20 the OIII signal was still very weak and tricky to process, requiring a lot of noise-reduction trickery. I'll definitely have to return to this target again.
The colour palette is particularly weird. Normal HOO tends to be strident reds and blues; HaHOO makes for paler yellow-gold and cyan colours. After a bit of playing around, this formula of my own gives excellent cold blue-green tonality instead.
