A male great horned owl flew in for a drink at Ayer Lake at Boyce Thompson Arboretum. But only the paranoid survive so he took the time to scope things out between drinks.
This from the BioSpere in Potsdam, Germany just outside Berlin. It's a great place of reptiles, butterflies, birds and an absolute array of plant and flower species. As I mentioned in another posting from the BioSphere this was a challenge with no flash but I think this worked out.
I cannot wait to get back there at some point.
Belated HNY to everyone and I hope everyone's 2019 is going to be great.
I've been so busy recently I can't post as much and I haven't been able to get out as much with the camera, but anyway, much love to everyone and as always, thank you! :)
The Horsehead and Flame Nebula, a stack of 11 shots processed in Photoshop. 1 of the frames was 10 minutes at ISO800, the rest were 20 minutes per frame, ISO400. Uncooled Nikon D810A on a Celestron CGEM2 mount, APT controlling the camera, ZWO guide camera with 60mm Sbvony scope for guiding with PHD2. The main scope is a Nikkor 600mm f/4 VR lens, shot wide open here. I had to keep adjusting the focus about every 40 minutes as the temp dropped, which is a pain! When I tried to do the meridian flip I messed it up and the scope lost its aligment, which for some reason I couldn't re-establish. I lost so much time I gave up for the night! Something I have to work on!

I was checking out the Cimarron River area in prep for aspen color season. It's especially pretty, from the pics I've seen.

I carefully planned this shoot, arriving early to Four Mile Creek so there would be a mist on the water and the fall foliage although past peak would still be an attractive backdrop for the Herons. Somehow the Herons got mixed up on the dates and times and were a no show. Standing on a muddy path alongside the creek under a canopy of trees holding my longest lens my options were limited. I really did not see any good shots, but I started viewing the trees above me through the lens very slowly and carefully similar to a sniper looking through his scope. I left with over 30 images that I probably would never have seen if the Herons had been there as scheduled.
A little bit more of a horizontal stretch instead of a vertical stretch but I have to say that these little greenies have a bag of tricks that will rival any bird in the world!! Saw a number of these little characters on the bayou today but none of them were very cooperative!
I'm a bit late to the party this evening but I will get there!!

Object: WR134 (October 2024)
WR 134 is a variable Wolf-Rayet star located in the constellation of Cygnus. It is surrounded by a faint bubble nebula blown by the intense radiation and high velocity winds from the star. It is 5.25 times the radius of our own sun, but due to a temperature over 63,000 K it is 400,000 times as luminous as the Sun.

I'll be driving to Glacier this weekend to spend some time eye level with the mountain gods. Most of the logistics are pinned down, but I am left with one nagging question: which panoramic pinhole to take? I know for a fact that my bag will have one, and only one, pano pinhole in it. Glacier is too appropriate a place for such cameras to leave them all at home. Likewise, it seems way too redundant to take more than one. My choices are between three: the 6x12 Holga WPC, the 6x12 curved plane Reality So Subtle (with filter thread) or the 6x17 curved plane Reality So Subtle with two pinholes. Between those I think the 6x17 is at the bottom of the list. It has already been to Glacier, after all it made this image. The 6x12 Reality So Subtle is my newest pinhole addition and the one I have used the least. But looking back through my Holga WPC images lately I am reminded at just how capable a camera the WPC is. Plus it is so compact and light... and I do plan to get some miles in so every ounce counts.
Thankfully I have just under 36 hours to make up my mind. Not a bad decision to have to wrestle with.

Another quick shot from Newlands Valley, Cumbria. A brief opportunity during our ever changing Cumbrian weather.
M27 can be found in the constellation of Vulpecula, which is high overhead in summer months. This planetary nebula lies at a distance of about 1227 LY from earth. It's a very bright object easily visible in binoculars. As a result, it's a favourite for stargazers. What we see is the remains of a star like our sun that grew through its red giant stage and cast out its outer shell, leaving little more than its core behind as a white dwarf to irradiate and illuminate the expanding shell of gas. This will be the fate of our own sun in a few billion years.
Since it's cold and the weather is not conducive to going out into the field, I'm looking back through older data I'd collected to process with new tools and techniques. In this case, I combined data from 2 separate sessions shot in the summer of 2019.

My friend is famous as a photographer of HDR in Japan. He often makes this signboard the subject. His work is in contrast to my photograph and is very clear, and it is impressive.
I enjoyed photography in Sunshine City on that day. However, I may like this shot most.
On March 8, 2015 in Ikebukuro.

This is a single 5 minute uncalibated sub from the system 2 scope at the Grand Mesa Observatory at Whitewater, Colorado, USA.
it was taken on the June 23, 2020 using a QHY367 Pro C Full Frame OSC CMOS camera on a William Optics 156 Refractor Telescope.
The comet reached perihelion on the 4th May 2020 at 1.615 AU. It came in from the Oort cloud and has an orbital period of around 58000 years.
In this image, it is close to spiral galaxy NGC 4217 in the constellation Canes Venatici and spiral galaxy Messier 106 is seen near the right border.
