Southern part of the Milky Way taken from North Oxfordshire with a Canon 1100D with Canon 10-18mm wide angle lens.
13 x 25 sec at ISO-1600 f/4.5. Stacked using #Sequator which allows you to freeze the foreground. It was very hazy, and although our village streetlights were off by that time, the bright orange you can see on the bottom left is entirely due to the unshielded lights on our village hall. When it's hazy or misty you can really see how bad the light-spill is from them I accidentally shot everything in jpeg (doh!) so I wasn't expecting much from the stacking process. I also need to clean my sensor...!
I accidentally shot everything in jpeg so I wasn't expecting much from the stacking process. I also slightly messed up one of the overlaps and I need to clean my sensor! But that night I got my clearest Milky Way shots so far this year.
Milky Way Core, Saturn, and Jupiter. Orland, Maine. The light pollution at the left and right horizon is from the City of Ellsworth and the Town of Bucksport, respectively.

A 3 hour trip to Chesil beach, Dorset last month. Very much worth it for the dark skies above and on the horizon. Looking forward to next milky way season, to improve on this. This was a number of photos tracked and stacked in sequator and processed in lightroom and photoshop.
this was taken with my unmodified Canon 500d. it is a total of 3 hours of data with 13 second exposures (untracked). I used a focal length of 55mm and F4. the editing softwares I used was Sequator (for stacking), Photoshop and Starnet++. it was taken in a bottle 5 sky. I also used calibration frames. You should only need about 30 darks, and 40 flats for the amount of data you stack.

My first attempt at stacking multiple images of the orion nebula.
Using my Nikon D500 and the Nikon 500mm f/5.6 PF lens manual focus on a static tripob, 125 images @ 1 sec and ISO 5000.
I had to realign the comp every few shots to keep the target in the center of frame so that the stacking software didn't have to work too hard, software used was the free Sequator program.

This my first humble attempt at this kind of semiclose-up astrophotography.
IC 1805, IC 1848 - "Heart & Soul". Captured from my back yard in rural Pennsylvania, USA on 10/8/20 with a Nikon D750 and Nikon 300mm f/2.8 lens. Tracking via an AstroTrac. 25 exposures were captured at f/2.8 and ISO 1600. Raw file development was performed using Rawtherapee. 50 flats were captured and stacking was accomplished with Sequator. Post-processed using RNC-Color-Stretch and Photoshop. I recently discovered the Optolong L-Pro broadband light pollution filter. I would highly recommend it for mild to moderate levels of light pollution (my home is Bortle level 4). I fully credit this filter will allowing me to capture the cleanest data to date on these targets.
This comet was captured on the day of its closest approach to the Earth, i.e. 0.077 astronomical units, or 11.600.000 kilometers. Shot on my house terrace, in the south of the Athens area.
So this job was not easy, due to the presence of a half moon in the sky, and an atmosphere loaded with lots of light pollution, heaters' fumes and moisture. Finally a cloudiness rolled-in swallowing everything in the sky and signaling to me that it was time to go inside.
5 star images and 1 noise image were stacked in Sequator.

eine Linde auf einer Anhöhe zwischen den Nidderauer Ortsteilen Windecken und Bruchköbel-Roßdorf, erschien mir ein geeigneter Vordergrund für eine Sternspur-Aufnahme.
Der Ort wurde im 16 Jh u.a. als Richt- und Hinrichtungsstätte genutzt. Künstlerisch gestaltete Holzfiguren erinnern heute an die vielen historischen Ereignisse.

The Milky Way creeping up behind Cuyamaca Peak in the "Back Country" of San Diego.
According to Wikipedia Cuyamaca is "a Spanish corruption of the Kumeyaay ( Native American tribe of the San Diego Region ) phrase "'Ekwiiyemak", which means, according to Margaret Langdon's translation, "Behind the clouds".
I've gone hiking in this area many times and wanted to capture the milky rising above this peak that I see from so many vantage points in San Diego. I tried it last year but I miscalculated the time that the moon was dropping behind me in the west and so by the time the moon disappeared allowing enough light from the milky to show so I could shoot it , it had made its way to high into the sky. This year the conditions were favorable, so I decided to get up at 12:30 am and make the 1.5 hour drive out to this spot so I could capture the beginning of Milky Way season.
19 images stacked in Sequator for the sky and blended with 3 focus stacked images at a much lower ISO for the foreground.

We finally had a clear night without a moon on a weekend. I've light painted this hay rake on a cloudy night a couple weeks ago and was itching to capture it with the Milky Way core.
10 Sky images ISO6400 f/3.2 13 second, stacked in Sequator for noise reduction

Bonus - We had a pair of Armadillos photo bomb us, I was able to capture one in the shot.
A cold, clear winter night in February, with the Milky Way over an old fish smokehouse in Down East Maine. The orange light on the smokehouse is from a light bulb across the street.
Nikon D850 and NIKKOR 14-24mm f/2.8 lens @ 14mm, f/2.8. The sky is the result of star stacking 20 exposures at ISO 12,800 for 9 seconds each in Starry Landscape Stacker for pinpoint stars and low noise. Starry Landscape Stacker is available only for Mac, but you can do this in Sequator on Windows, or manually in Photoshop. The foreground is a focus stack of 5 exposures, each at f/2.8 for 4 minutes at ISO 1600 with the focus pulled in between each shot. The focus stacking was done in Photoshop, then I manually blended the focus stacked image with the star stacked sky image to have a final image with everything in focus from the foreground to the stars with low noise.

Moon Setting over Bangor, Maine from Dedham, Maine. Nine, 6-sec exposures stacked in Sequator, edited in Lightroom and cleaned up with Topaz DeNoise AI.
20) 15 second exposures stacked using Sequator. No guide mount - just a tripod. ISO 4000, Rokinon 14mm f2.8 lens, Nikon D850. Foreground is a stack of 6 different exposures blended with the sky.
This asterism was named by Eddie Carpenter and is located in Cassiopeia. The double humped shape looks like the track of a roller coaster and it's absolutely gorgeous in binoculars. I was alerted to this asterism by Steve Tonkin and it really is worth seeking out. I used to be obsessed with roller coasters so this one really appealed to me! The asterism is at the centre of this photo.
Taken with a Canon 1100D with Canon fixed 50mm lens. This is a stack of 11 x 10 second shots taken at ISO-1600. The 11 images + 5 darks were stacked with Sequator then processed in Lightroom and Fast Stone Image Viewer. I added star spikes just for artistic value using the Star Spikes Pro plugin for Photoshop.
I am so impressed with the Nikon Z6ii. It does so well at night. 3 bracketed shots. AI DeNoise in Lightroom. Stacked in sequator

Orion is a prominent constellation located on the celestial equator and visible throughout the world. It is one of the most conspicuous[1] and recognizable constellations in the night sky.[2] It is named after Orion, a hunter in Greek mythology. Its brightest stars are blue-white Rigel (Beta Orionis) and red Betelgeuse (Alpha Orionis). Source - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orion

Hallo zusammen
Am Samstag 28.06.25 war ich wieder mal auf den Vogelberg im Solothurner Jura. Ziel war wiederum die Milchstrasse, respektive den Milchstrassenbogen über dem Mittelland und den Alpen. Leider ist die Lichtverschmutzung über unserem Mittelland recht deftig....
Weiter wollte ich die Aufnahmen eigentlich mit dem 35mm machen, stacken und dann als Panorama zusammensetzten. So hätte man mehr Details. Nun ja, diese Aufnahmen bin ich noch am Entwickeln....
Dieses Panorama ist mit der Nikon D850, dem Sigma 20mm/1.4 und natürlich vom Stativ mit dem Novoflex Slim Nodalpunkt aufgenommen.
Aufnahmedaten ISO 1600, f 1.6, 6sek, insgesamt sind es 7 Hochkantaufnahmen, jede dieser Aufnahmen wurde aus 13 Bilder gestackt.
Entwickelt mit PL 8.7, mit Sequator gestackt und mit PanoramaStudio 4.1 zusammengesetzt....
Ich hoffe das Bild gefällt euch.
Gruss Martin
My first attempt at photographing the Milky Way. 10 image stack from TIF files using Sequator and the edited in Capture One Pro 20
I took 11 light frames and 3 dark frames on the early morning of April 10, 2018 at Last Chance, Colorado and processed them on April 15, 2018 in Sequator. So the date in metadata in the final picture changed. I post-processed it in Adobe Lightroom CC and Photoshop CC to generate this final picture.
