Globular star cluster M22, taken from Malibu, California on August 6, 2005. Cropped from original single, unguided image taken with Canon 10D behind an Orion Short-Tube 80mm telescope (400 mm focal length), mounted on top of a Meade LX200 GPS 10" Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope in alt-az configuration.

As I didn't want to waste away a rare clear night I found a Messier object to photograph and test the limiting magnitude of my 40D under Boston night skies. I still can't seem to push it past ~ mag. +12.5. (480 frames x 3.2" exposure at 190 mm, F/5.0, ISO 1600)

Meade DSI Color II/ 300 second (20 15sec exposures) RGB exposure/Prime focus/203×812mm/LXD75 8" Schmidt-Newtonian/stacked in DeepSkyStacker/leveled in Photoshop/Flintstone, GA

Long-duration tracked exposure of the M-22 globular cluster taken at the prime focus of my 6" Astrophysics refractor telescope.

The clouds finally cleared out and my partner and I finally got the chance to take our telescope and imaging gear out for a test run. This was our first attempt at deep-sky astrophotography, and we were pretty pleased with the results

 

The Orion Nebula is located roughly 1400 light years from Earth. It is comprised primarily of Hydrogen II gas, and the nebulosity (glow) is the result of the HII gas becoming ionized due to the hot young stars contained in the region.
