I had the pleasure to photograph the Milkyway setting over Lake Clifton with a number of other astro photographers making the most of a dark, clear night close to the end of this year’s season.
This image is a 3x2 frame panorama with each frame made up of 10 stacked images for noise reduction.

Milky Way Hocking Hills Cabin and possible Perseids Meteor 8-10-2021
This was shot on our last night during our trip to Hocking Hills. We were fortunate to find a cabin located on top of a mountain with an unimpeded view the sky. The Milky Way was literally above our heads. I believe the area is a Bortle 3 sky, when compared to Cherry Springs (Bortle 2). It was nice not to have to lug all of the equipment to a dark sky park and instead simply step outside the cabin.
I saw many Perseids Meteors during my evenings shooting. And have left the what I believe to be a meteor in this shot.

After what seems like endless cloudy skies, I finally caught comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan–ATLAS) this evening. This view is using a 300mm telephoto lens. I don't think I got my focus exact, but I'm just pleased I got something!

Taken from Durlston Country Park in Dorset by the huge stone sphere in the park. I was doing a bunch of test shots hoping to get a better stab at this during a clearer night, but despite the mist and cloud near the horizon, the Milky Way was visually about the brightest I've ever seen it! The sky was so dark that I had to push my ISO up higher than I usually use. Saturn can be seen to the left of the Milky Way.

Taken with a Canon 1100D with Canon 10-18mm wide angled lens. ISO-3200 for 25 seconds,

Minimal processing in Lightroom and denoised in Fast Stone Image Viewer. At home I have to do a lot of processing to be able to bring out detail in the Milky Way but the sky in Dorset is so much darker!

About the monument
The eight and a half foot tall bronze statue was sculpted by John Massey Rhind, who created a number of statues at Gettysburg. It stands on a ten foot granite base. An inscribed metal tablet is on the front of the monument above the crescent moon symbol of the Eleventh Corps. The monument was dedicated by the State of New York on June 6, 1922.

Messier 44 (M44), also known as the Beehive Cluster or Praesepe (the Manger), is an open star cluster in the constellation Cancer.
Praesepe is a bright, large cluster with an apparent magnitude of 3.7. It lies at a distance of 577 light years from Earth.
M44 is one of the nearest open clusters to Earth and can easily be seen without binoculars in dark skies. It appears as a blurry patch of light to the naked eye. The cluster is best seen in binoculars and small telescopes.

This is the Andromeda galaxy, this galaxy contains around a trillion stars and it took 2.5 million years for this light to reach my camera sensor. This photo consists of 90 second and 2 minute exposures in bortle 5 (shooting into the highlights of light pollution). It is edited in Photoshop and stacked in Sequator. It was a challenge getting data for this photo because of light pollution, it was low on the horizon therefore I had a minimal amount of time to photograph it (that is why it's noisy). On the plus side it shows the structure of the Andromeda galaxy well and is good considering my level.

Hey! This is my first time capturing The Andromeda Galaxy (M31), I’m pleased with the results even that the Galaxy is too big to my telescope.

This is the Andromeda galaxy, the closest major galaxy to our own. I captured this in bortle 2 skies, and this image has only 1 hour and 46 minutes of integration. 12 of these shots were 50 seconds long, but the rest were 2-minute exposures. They were all at ISO 1600 and F5.6. I post-processed this in Sequator, and I processed it in Photoshop.
One of my first experiences in stacking astrophotos.

so i got another night of clear sky and captured some more exposure time...
now at 560x15s..
not a dramatic improvement but i think it's getting better... i even managed to retain some detail in the bright central area this time... :)

This is my first attempt at a composite shot. I am happy with the results and was surprised at how far software has come to help build shots like this. The foreground was shot during blue hour. The background is 29 shots stacked in sequator for noise reduction. I also shot two shots with the lens cap on to help the software remove noise.
Crop of 10 individual panels. Each panel consists of 10 individual photos taken with a modded Sony A6000 @1600 ASA and STC Multispectra Clip-Filter. Lens was a Sigma 56mm 1.4 @f2.0. Stacking done in Sequator and assembling in MS ICE. Final processing done in PS CS2, iOS LR, iOS photo App. Compare this to an old version taken with a film camera: flic.kr/p/2cwBuiW
To the south of Antares, in the tail of the constellation of the Scorpio, at more than 6000 thousand light years is the emission nebula IC 4628 or also known as the Prawn nebula or False comet.
Young stars nearby, massive and hot, radiate the nebula with ultraviolet light, which makes the electrons of atoms jump. When these electrons recombine again, the glow of the nebula is produced, seen here by the red emission of hydrogen.
On the right side is NGC 6231 or better known as the Jeweler of the North (or boreal), this young and massive open cluster is more than 5900 light years, with an estimated age of 3.2 million years, and stands out for its abundance in hot and young supergiant stars much brighter than the sun and that include at least two Wolf-Rayet stars.

Although the purpose of this evening was slightly different, I eventually took even this huge panorama.
Firstly, I needed to test my DIY starglow filter, and when I saw this place with the tree under the Orion, I decided this was the ideal moment.
The starglow filter did a pretty good job! The effect is further enhanced by the cloudiness, which came just when I needed to take the picture. However, I am still happy because this filter enables me to make more realistic pictures.
Secondly, this was the first time I used my new Sigma 28 mm f/1.4, which is amazing with small sharp stars even in the corners!
I was not lucky with the clouds, but on the other hand, I was lucky with the meteors, which doesn't happen to me very often. I saw three meteors, of which two were captured on the camera. Both are on the right of this panorama. The brighter was truly spectacular, it lasted about 4 seconds and was similarly bright as Jupiter.
In addition, I truly like how the sky looks with a modified camera. The red nebulae make the picture more interesting and I really enjoy that.
Thank you @vobaphoto for the company!
