This is a photo of a milky way core is a panorama taken in my backyard. It was untracked and was a stack of 467 exposures (25 seconds each). It was at ISO 1600, F3.5 and at 18mm. The programs used were Sequator, Lightroom classic, photoshop and starnet++. My backyard is in bortle 5 conditions and the core of the milky way was rising in light glow, so it was making the northern side of the milkyway a bit noisy, but I tried to bring out it anyway. I brang it out by using the following sliders in lightroom classic: dehaze, clarity, sharpness, noise reduction, colour noise reduction and highlights sliders. This brang it out better than expected, but like I said before it has a noticeable amount of noise in it.

Had some spare time and did a quick stack and edit of the Orion Nebula data I had collected over the holidays. This is 160 x 1,3sec exposures stacked together (3.5m total exposure) and then edited in Photoshop. Shot with my 1.5x crop Canon dslr body and 250mm telephoto zoom lens set at 250mm / f5.6. Aligned and stacked in Sequator with 140 x 1,3sec dark frames and 10 flats. shot at ISO1600.

Here is a 5 minute stack of 10, 30 second exposures from Peck Farm Park in Geneva using a Omegon Mount Mini Track LX2. Bortle 8 skies make wide field astrophotography a real challenge. You can make out Messier 41 a little below the bright star, Sirius.

Been out this evening, making the most of the clear skies...

I've still not nailed this. Either it's my technique, or my gear is insufficient, or my expectations are too high...

 

I'm stacking images in Sequator.

Pointers very gratefully received.

Milkyway over Trona Pinnacles, CA

 

This composition was in my Dream List since last few years. Last year my attempt failed since I didn't know the exact spot from where I could get the Milkyway Arch. This time, I had done enough planning, study and maintained all the info together at one 'Place' on PicnPlace. When I got this chance couple weeks back, I took a 6 hour one side drive to this place. I knew exactly where to shoot from coz I had the GPS coordinates stored on PicnPlace. PicnPlace is an app available for iOS and Android cell phones.

 

About the Photograph:

This came out to be one of the most difficult shots for me. At this location, there's not enough ambiance light, but a weird light pollution too. The area is vast and it wasn't easy for me to place LLLs and light up the landscape.

So I did something differently. I took the landscape foreground pano pictures just before the moonset and Milkyway Panos after moonset. The camera fixed on the tripod ... and the tripod not moved once setup.

Details:

 

Total of 131 pictures to capture this whole landscape to my perfection.

AstroM1

   

Alpha Aquilae (AFI: /al-tair/ α Aql, α Aquilae) is a white main sequence star with magnitude +0.77, located about 17 light-years from Earth, in the constellation Aquila. It is the brightest star in the constellation and the twelfth brightest star in the night sky. it is also one of the closest to Earth. It is also one of the vertices of the Summer Triangle, being the other two Vega and Deneb. Its proximity to the celestial equator makes it observable from all populated regions of the Earth.

 

Altair is notable for its very rapid rotation on itself: by measuring the width of its spectral lines, it has been found that it performs a complete rotation on itself in just 8 and a half hours. By comparison, the Sun takes about 25 days to rotate on itself. This speed of rotation crushes the star to the poles, making it an oblate spheroid. Altair is also a Delta Scuti variable.

Comet 2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS) at How Hill Tower, near Fountains Abbey, Ripon, North Yorkshire, UK.

 

How Hill Tower is built on the site of the Chapel of Saint Michael de Monte. The hill with the village of Erlesholt (now deserted) was given by Robert de Sartis to Fountains Abbey and the chapel was built in c1200. It was repaired or rebuilt between 1494 and 1526 by Abbot Marmaduke Huby. This tower was built by John Aislabie. It was as part of the first phase of the garden at Studley Park in c1718-23. Fragments of the ruined chapel were incorporated into the tower. It was used as a gaming house in 1737-8 and may later have functioned as a folly.

Reprocessed an older series of Orion Nebula photos with stacking software.

The originals came from 11-2018. The stacking program brought out Running Man Nebula.

Sequator is the stacking software.

Also, I need to tighten up the focus. 300mm is not easy to focus.

Nice thing about data is that is does not go bad so I will revisit this when I get PixInsight back

Pretty happy with this, wanted more integration time but my mount lost its mind doing a meridian flip, think my motor are under powered. Have some fixes on the way.

The Rosette Nebula is an emission nebula found near the constellation Monoceros. Named for its resemblance to a rose, it is well positioned for northern hemisphere astrophotographers at this time of year.
