Here's to a great start of 2022! I spent the night under the stars at a nearby observatory with my telescope, and here's my take at a classic of the winter sky.

Comet C/2017 K2 (PanSTARRS) is seen about a half a degree above M10 on the evening of July 14, 2022. In the wide field image, the globular cluster M12 can also be seen near the upper edge of the photo. The image was made of 27 fifteen second exposures taken with a Canon 80D and a Canon 200 mm f/2.8L II lens. (ISO 800, f/3.5). Stacking was done using Nebulosity.

M38 is the third and faintest of the three Messier objects located in the constellation of Auriga.

 

M38 is located 4,200 light years from Earth and has an apparent diameter of 21 arc minutes, which corresponds to a spatial radius of 25 light-years. In total it contains about 100 stars and has an estimated age of 220 Million years.

I’m still working on optimizing the lens setting on my Canon EF70-200 f/2.8L USM lens and chose Cassiopeia for a little test. For this test I decided to keep the aperture wide open at f/2.8, the image shown is for 6-minutes total exposure time.

Tech Specs: Canon 6D, Canon EF70-200 f/2.8L USM lens, iOptron SkyTracker mount, ISO 1000, 12 x 30 seconds, f/2.8, 70mm, also included five dark and five bias frames. Image Date: October 25, 2016. Imaging location was Weatherly, Pennsylvania, USA.

La nebulosa del Velo es una nube de gas caliente e ionizado. Es la parte visible del Bucle de Cygnus, también conocido como fuente de radio W78, o Sharpless 103. Es una nebulosa muy extensa y se suele dividir en tres grandes áreas: El velo Oriental: (Caldwell 34) que se halla cerca de la estrella 52 Cygni. El velo occidental (Caldwell 33), y el Triángulo de Pickering Wisp. Se trata del remanente de una supernova relativamente débil en la constelación del Cisne.

 

Los segmentos más brillantes de la nebulosa se enumeran en el Nuevo Catálogo General (NGC) con las designaciones de NGC 6960, 6979, 6992 y 6995. El segmento más fácil de encontrar es 6960, que corre a través de la estrella 52 Cygni. NGC 6979 (la parte central del complejo) es el Triángulo de Pickering

Once In a while, you see a beautiful photo taken by someone and you know you just have to attempt it too.

The same happened here. Last week, we saw THIS beautiful milky way shot taken by Mike Oria over Natural bridges and decided to attempt it ourselves.

This photo consists of 2 shots - one of 60 secs with my D800 + 24-70 on the iOptron Skytracker and second longer one of the natural bridge with the Skytracker turned off

This is a 38 shot panorama of the Milky Way rising above an old farm shed at Walyormouring, 2 hours north east of Perth in Western Australia. I used a screw on hydrogen alpha filter along with my astro modded camera to capture the Ha regions, which are the prominent red regions of the sky, not normally captured using standard cameras.

A new project of mine to try get a super hi res image of the night sky. My first attempt went well with 85% of my 50 images lining up well. However there is an obvious colour vignetting visible around each frame due to my light pollution filter. Will try to rectify this issue next time.

  

The Teide National Park at Tenerife is an excellent place to shoot the Milky Way.

 

Sky: 27x 60 sec. @ ISO 1.600 stacked.

Tracked with IOptron SkyGuider Pro.

 

Foreground: 6 frames focus stacked.

 

Processing done in Siril and PS.

Finally got a clear night at a good low light pollution area to finish my main goal for this winter.

Comet C/2021 A1 (Leonard) is seen near the galaxy NGC 4203 in the early morning hours of November 13, 2021. The image was made of 52 twenty second exposures taken with a Canon 80D and a Canon 200 mm f/2.8L II lens. (ISO 800, f/3.5). Tracking was done with an iOptron Sky Tracker with stacking in Nebulosity.

The rising constellation Orion captured a week ago limited by thin clouds.

This is the bottom half of the Orion Constellation shot with my Nikon D600 and Rokinon 85mm f1.4 lens on an iOptron Skytracker mount. I didn't have a lot of time to collect exposures so this is only 11 exposures stacked, 5 minutes per exposure at ISO 800 and f4. This one will get a lot better once I can get more exposures stacked and then mosaic with the upper half of the constellation.

EOS 700Da, 51 lightframes 120s. William Optics ZS61 on an iOptron Skyguider Pro.

While waiting for the Smoke Plumes to clear, I decided to work on another reprocessing project.

 

This was data from July 2022.

 

Messier 57 - The Ring Nebula - 14.7 hours of HaLRGB integration.

 

The original image was published in Amateur Astrophotographer Magazine. Since that version was the one published, I decided to preserve that version by adding the new version as its own post.

 

I was happy with the original result but felt I could try to improve on it. The original used many techniques to combine the Ha, Luminance, and RGB images. I built off of that approach but added some new tools and techniques - and I made different processing choices.

 

I aimed to bring out the outer gas shell shown in the Ha data.

 

Hope you like the new result.

Orion and Taurus with their nebulas and clusters alongside the Milky Way at left. Betelgeuse is dimmer than usual here in this scene from December 28, 2019. The star clusters M35 in Gemini and M37, M36 and M38 in Auriga are prominent at top left,. as well as the Hyades and the large open clusters NGC 1647 and 1746 in Taurus at upper right. The red Rosette Nebula is at left, and the Orion Nebula, M42, is below the Belt of Orion. The large Taurus Dark Clouds are at top.

 

This is a stack of 12 x 3-minute exposures at f/2.8 with the Canon 35mm lens and Canon EOS Ra at ISO 800, on the iOptron SkyGuider Pro, plus an additional exposure through the Kenko Softon A filter layered in for the enhanced star glows. However, thin haze and ice crystals added natural star glows.

The constellation Orion is beginning its winter trek across the sky. One of many gems in that area of the sky is the amazing complex near the bright star Zeta Orionis, one of the three stars in Orion's belt. Here are the Horsehead Nebula, a.k.a. Barnard 33, and the Flame Nebula, a.k.a. NGC 2024, among other, smaller features.
