It's been a year since I pointed my camera overhead to see what a regular camera and tripod can do, given the chance to photograph the night sky, and it has been 10 months since I last imaged this girl next door.
I've come a long way in this one year and have a lot longer to go still.
Equipment:
Camera - Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark II
Lens - Rokinon 135mm F2
Mount - Skywatcher Star Adventurer
Guiding - SVBONY 30mm F4/ZWO ASI 120mm Mini/PHD2 on Astroberry
Hey guys! One of my good friends, Nick, bought a Sky Watcher Dobsonian Telescope and invited me over the other night to view the sky through a telescopes eye! I brought along my camera and managed to put my lens up against the telescope's eyepiece and fire off a few photos! Turns out I got some decent photos, and I hope you guys think so too!! Thanks a million if ya do!
Ciao for now :D

Sorry this is a couple days late BUT thought y'all wouldn't mind waiting for the full moon ;)
Check her 52 week project out too please and thank you :D
Big shout out and condolences to those who lost someone dear to them from the tragedy of 9/11. May those who perished live on in our lives forever.
The shot was done attaching a Sky-Watcher ST2060 spotting scope to the camera, at the shortest zoom (20x).

The Pleiades, M45, Krittika, Subaru or the Seven Sisters, call it what you want but this is one of the most spectacular sights in the winter skies. Though the views of M45 through a telescope or binoculars at low powers are incredulous, experiencing the grandeur of the Merope Nebula, i.e., the space cloud around the sisters, isn't possible without long exposure photography.
This is my second attempt at the Pleiades star cluster and Merope Nebula collected on 2/24/2022 after losing one complete night to equipment failure.

The full moon is very difficult to be focused because there is just a little contrast.
But it is a good way to discover if there is dust on the sensor :-(

La messa a fuoco della luna piena è molto difficoltosa perché non c'è contrasto.
Ma è un buon modo per scoprire se c'è polvere sul sensore :-(

While I'm waiting the rise of the moon, I take a backlight shot using just the halo, to see how the K100D works at 3200 ISO.
The shot was done attaching a Sky-Watcher ST2060 spotting scope to the camera, at the shortest zoom (20x).
The exposure time is 25 seconds, the focus just luck.

First night out with the Skywatcher Star Adventurer.
The Andromeda galaxy is the closest large neighbor to our own Milky Way galaxy. The two tiny fuzzy blobs near Andromeda are its satellite galaxies.
Can't wait for the collision between the Milky Way and Andromeda in a few billion years!

Taken tonight, two days past first quarter, and processed to bring out the Moon's subtle colouration.
This is a single 1/100-second exposure at ISO 200, taken with a Nikon D90 through a Sky-Watcher Equinox 80 apo doublet refractor and a Tele Vue 2× Powermate. Effective focal length: 1,000 mm; effective focal ratio: f/12.5. Processed in Aperture 3 for sharpening, colour balance, exposure and vibrancy.
There is some chromatic aberration at the top of the image -- a result, I think, of using a refractor.
A shot made attaching a Sky-Watcher ST2060 spotting scope to the camera.
The photo is made at the shortest zoom (20×), and the image in the viewfinder was almost totally black: this is the best focusing I got with some attempts.
This is a detail of the bell tower of Cervo: the image below was taken about 150 yds. closer.
Una scatto fatto attaccando alla macchina uno spotting scope Sky-Watcher ST2060.
La foto è fatta allo zoom minimo (20×), e l'immagine nel mirino era quasi totalmente nera: questo è il miglior fuoco che ho avuto con vari tentativi.
Questo è un dettaglio del campanile di Cervo: l'immagine sotto è stata ripresa circa 150 metri più vicino.
Growing up, I'd always gawked in awe at a giant poster of the Horsehead nebula at my father's workplace. Never thought I'd end up taking a picture of it myself.
From left to right: Flame nebula, Horsehead nebula, Running man nebula and the Orion nebula.
The Great Orion nebula is one of the closest massive star forming regions to us.

Minha primeira captura do planeta mais distante do sistema solar! Netuno! Este planeta é invisível a olho nu, podendo ser observado apenas com auxílio de telescópios ou binóculos. Estes são todos single frames. No momento da foto, no dia 29/06/2020, estava a uma distância aproximada de 4 bilhões 430 milhões de km da terra. Levaria + ou - 246 minutos, na velocidade da luz, para chegar lá. Canon T7 em foco primário num Telescópio Sky-watcher 200p.
My first picture of the most distant planet of the solar system: Neptune. This planet is invisible to the naked eye, only seen with a telescope or a binocule. Theese are all single frames. At the day of the picture, Neptune was at a distance of 4 billions and 430 million km. It would take more or less 246 minutes at the speed of light to get there.

The Magnificent Veil Nebula!
The remains of a star that exploded about 10000 years ago. This epic cosmic explosion would have rivaled the moon to the then humans.
What would they have thought? How would they have rationalized this freak occurrence in the heavens? Would they have imagined a giant war of the gods? Maybe not, to them, a war did not mean explosions yet. Maybe it was the birth of a new god or the death of an old one or the wrath of an angry one or the blessing of a generous one or maybe, just maybe, that the death star finally blew up Alderaan.
We know what it is now. Science sure has it's limitations but has given us irrefutable knowledge about certain things. It's disheartening when we start questioning the drop in the ocean that we do know about and in the process drag a section of humanity decades, if not centuries, back in time.

The North America Nebula and it's neighbor, the Pelican Nebula, in the constellation Cygnus are the visible sections of a giant cloud of ionized Hydrogen about 2500 light years from us.
The North America Nebula is aptly named but I'm not sure I can say the same about the Pelican Nebula.

NGC 55, uma galáxia espiral barrada. Aparenta apenas uma faixa pois a vemos lateralmente, devido nossa posição em sua relação. Localizada na constelação de Sculptor, está a 6,5 milhões de anos luz de distância de nós, tendo grande tamanho aparente no céu. A parte mais brilhante que podemos ver é seu núcleo. Gostei bastante desse objeto e dessa captura! Captura feita na @pousadamirantedomorro
NGC 55, it's a barred spiral galaxy. It looks like a bar to us because we see it lateraly. Located at Sculptor constellation, it is about 6,5 million light years away and it has great apparent size in the sky. The brighest part is its core. I really like this object and capture!

Galáxia do Sombreiro (M104). É uma galáxia pequena no céu, porém bastante luminosa. Seu formato lembra um sombreiro. Ela é rodeada por um material escuro e ela está praticamente na posição em que estamos para vê-las.

Galaxy season is here!
The Leo triplet is a small group of interacting galaxies about 35 million light years away, visible to us in the constellation Leo(duh).
Each of those galaxies has about the same number of stars as our own Milky way galaxy, give or take a 100 billion. All three spiral galaxies have some visible structural disintegration due to the gravitational interaction between them.
This image is a result of 2.5 hours of integration after losing over 2 hours of data to equipment failure and wind. It's not a bad result but I might try and get more data this month.

Galáxia do Olho Negro (M64 ou NGC4826) é uma galáxia com um núcleo que visualmente se assemelha a um olho. Localizada a cerca de 17 milhões de anos luz da terra, é minha segunda captura deste objeto. Sem dúvida, esta bem mais definida. Um fato curioso desta galáxia é que enquanto o material interno próximo ao núcleo move-se em uma direção, sua parte mais externa move-se na direção contrária, diferente das galáxias comuns em que todo seu material gira ao redor do núcleo na mesma direção. Foto feita em bortle 8 com filtro L-Pro.
Black Eye Galaxy (M64 ou NGC4826) it's a galaxy with a core that looks like an eye. Located about 17 million light years away, it's my second picture of this object. Without a question, better and well defined. A curious fact about this galaxy is while all its matter next to the core spin in one direction, its outter region spin in the opposit direction, unlike other galaxies that all matter spin in the same direction around the core. Capture made in a Bortle 8 site, with L-Pro filter.
