The Orion Nebula is a diffuse nebula situated in the Milky Way, being south of Orion's Belt in the constellation of Orion. It is one of the brightest nebulae, and is visible to the naked eye in the night sky.
M33, one of the Milky Way's closest neighbours, located in the constellation Triangle. The size of the galaxy in the sky is about as large as the full Moon, so I used a f6.3 focal reducer on my f10 SCT.
This image is a stack of 20 three-minute exposures at ISO400, stacked with DeepSkyStacker and processed with Lightroom.

Its so much fun :)
I love the stars!
This photo was taken from Silchester, Hampshire, UK (51.35 long, 1.06667 lat).on 24 September 2013 between 11.00pm and 11.30pm.
The photo is composed of 20 exposures of 75 seconds at ISO 6400 with 8 dark frames subtracted and all stacked using Deepskystacker.
The Crab Nebula (M1) is a planetary nebula located in the constellation Taurus. It is a supernova remnant (the remains of an exploding star) which was witnessed on earth in 1054 and recorded by Chinese astronomers. It is a small target but a beautiful one in my opinion.
My equipment is a modified Canon EOS 1100D, a Sky Watcher ED80 telescope and an EQ3-2 Mount with an RA motor. I also used a UHC filter.
Stack of 24 fifteen-second shots. The sky was rapidly turning to predawn twilight as I took this sequence--I'm guessing that's why the nebula wound up kind of bluish. Either that or the deep red Lagoon Nebula I've seen in photos is largely H-alpha.
Really had to slaughter the contrast to bring out the nebulosity. Gonna have to try this from Leamington...

One of the advantages to shooting the sky with a camera rather than a telescope is you can get medium length shots like this. This is the Orion and Horsehead Nebulas in one frame at 170 mm, from the belt down the length of the sword in the constellation. Shot at 3200 ISO rather than 6400 as my others of the night were done, so the image came out a little cleaner, although I might have like to have more exposure in the horsehead region. Overall quite pleased with it.

Canon 450D Full Spectrum f/2 C-11 /CGEM-DX / Hyperstar. 25 lights, no Darks, no Bias, no Flats, stacked in Deepskystacker. No filters.
The Horsehead Nebula (also known as Barnard 33 ) is a dark nebula in the constellation Orion. The nebula is located just to the south of the star Alnitak, which is farthest east on Orion's Belt, and is part of the much larger Orion Molecular Cloud Complex. The nebula was first recorded in 1888 by Scottish astronomer Williamina Fleming on photographic plate B2312 taken at the Harvard College Observatory. The Horsehead Nebula is approximately 1500 light years from Earth. It is one of the most identifiable nebulae because of the shape of its swirling cloud of dark dust and gases, which bears some resemblance to a horse's head when viewed from Earth.

If you look closely just slightly off-centre to the right you will see a faint fuzzy patch. That's a galaxy. The Great Andromeda Galaxy. On very dark nights you might be able to see it with the naked eye.

These galaxies are close by at about 12 million light years distance. M81 is the furthest object that can be seen with the naked eye (under extremely dark clear skies, by someone with very good vision). The two galaxies are interacting gravitationally, M82 is irregular and undergoing massive star formation after passing near M81 around 100 million years ago.

Captured comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan–ATLAS) with my Panasonic Lumix S5 and a Sigma 28-70 2.8 DG lens - at 70mm. This was 90 minutes after sunset on Oct. 21, 2024.
I didn't know what to expect, my focus wasn't perfect, and it's the first time I've stacked raw images (using DeepSkyStacker), but I'm happy with the results. I used darktable to edit the stacked TIF file.

Nothing fancy here, just a simple stack of three unguided images without calibration frames. There was a lot of cloud at Lake St. Peter that evening, so I didn't bother setting up my SkyTracker and just took a few wide angled shots with my camera mounted on a tripod. Each image was shot at ISO 3200, f/1.4 @ 5 seconds on a Canon 70D and a Sigma 100mm ART lens. Images stacked with DeepSkyStacker.
