Andromeda-Galaxy (M31) over pine trees near my observatory. The circle next to my name represents the apparent diameter of full moon relative to the same conditions. I used the 8 last subframes (of a large series) to an integration (8 x 80 sec, ISO 4000) and one single frame (1 x 80 sec, ISO 400) for a atmospheric composite. Sony A7s (CentralDS), Canon 200/F1.8 @1.8, L-pro filter, EQ8 mount, Tenerife, Canary Islands, 1180 m altitude.
Located in the constellation Triangulum. Takne through NP127is 5 inch refractor at f/4.2. Collected with a Canon 7D MKII. approximately 4 hours total exposure of 7 minute ISO 1600 subframes. Taken at Grandview Campground.
M42 The Orion Nebula imaged in HaOiiiOiii. The Ha image is mapped to red and consists of 4 1/2 hours of 60 second subframes. The Oii image is mapped to green and blue and consists of 2 1/2 hours worth of 60 second subframes.
Ha data was captured on the 22nd, 29th and 30th December 2019 and the Oiii data on the 12th January 2020.

I overlayed an extremely blurred, cropped version of this: flic.kr/p/JEStw8 and set the layer to "soft light" as an experiment...
Also I used core data from these:

Horsehead close-up: flic.kr/p/P1UuSp
M42 full: <a href="https://flic.kr/p/RWJcUJ"
Processed in PixInsight, assembled in Photoshop 2017
this is actually a reprocessing of the image I took earlier in the year, now that I have a slightly better understanding of how to process astro images, another challenge is that instead of a stack of one hour of data this is simply a single 2 minute subframe stretched, very happy with how it came out
I've heard of the Pacman Nebula for a long time and it's not too hard to see the shape that earned its name. I've always zoomed in trying to catch as much detail in the nebula as possible. But this time I zoomed out and notice that there was more to the Pacman identity than just the shape. Viewed from the right angle it appeaAptera that the nebula is rushing ahead to gobble up ⍺Cas. Video game at an astronomical level!
Seestar S50 - 828 ten-second subframes | Polar alignment | Mosaic mode.
This is a re-process of my original RGB photo from May 2024. An additional 1 hour of luminance subframes was added to the original image stack. Thsi helped to bring out the details of the molecular cloud and trails of dust.
Additional technical details can be seen at my Astrobin page:
taken from my backyard on May 12 , 2020 just before midnight . 26 subframes 120 sec each stack in PI
For this rendition of the 2-panel mosiac, I ran all of the subframes through the same PixInsight WBPP run so that they would all be at the same local normalization, I applied ChannelCombination to the RGB masters for each panel separately before merging the panels, and I produced separate star and nebula images before applying nonlinear stretches. The stars image was stretched delicately while the nebula image was stretched very agressively. I like the stars that resulted from this treatment.

Definition: Sub-framing is a type of compositional photography technique wherein one or more photo elements are framed by another element.
Die Preise werden maßgeblich durch die Rostfreiheit der Karosserie (besonders an Schwellern und Hilfsrahmen), die Originalität (bei Sammlerstücken) oder die Qualität der Motorsport-Komponenten (bei Umbauten) bestimmt.
Prices are largely determined by the rust-free condition of the body (especially on the sills and subframe), its originality (for collector's items), and the quality of the motorsport components (for conversions).

I have wanted to get a detailed shot of this supernova remnant for quite some time. The guiding wasn't perfect this night, but I'm pleased with the overall result. I wonder if I'll be able to do this well enough again in the future to watch the expansion of the nebula that continues from when it appeared in the sky as a supernova in 1054 C.E.
Shot with a Celestron Edge HD 925 at focal length 2210 mm (f/9.4) with an Atik 414-EX monochrome CCD and Optolong RGB deep sky filters. All subframes were 150 s exposures.

NGC 6979 also know as the Pickering's Tringle is a part of a larger nebula, the Cygnus Loop in the Cygnus constellation.
The Triangle is brightest along the northern side of the loop.
This supernova remnant is located around 2400 light-years.

As of last week, the Bugatti Veyron is once again the fastest car in the world. The figures are stunning: 8.0 litres, 4 turbochargers, 16 cylinders, 1001 hp, 4wd.
This Lego model has been built to 1:15 scale (16-wide) for Eurobricks 2010 LDD Challenge and features a mid-mounted W8 piston motor, 4wd, four-wheel independent modularised suspension. The vehicle is built to true automotive method. The front passenger tub is technic pin mounted to the rear engine/chassis subframe. All exterior panel except the roof are unstressed and can be detached from the body. The rear spoiler is also height and pitch adjustable.
For this image I took two photos of two horses looking over a fence, I then superimposed a close up of one of the horses, reduced it in size and repositioned it onto the original image which I made black and white.
M51 - The Whirlpool Galaxy
Easily one of the most photographed deep sky objects, M51 never ceases to amaze me. My first ever astrophoto in 2012 was of this galaxy, and I've shot it pretty much every year since, constantly improving on what had come before. This year was no different other than the amount of data I had.
I shot this over many nights in the spring and early summer despite having a lot of cloud cover to deal with. Overall, I had about 12 hours of data, but much of that didn't quite measure up due to clouds blowing through, deteriorating my images. It look me quite a long time to go through hundreds of images manually to weed out the obviously bad stuff until I had just shy of 8 hours of data. Then finally in stacking, I whittled that down even further.
This is the final image with 6 hours, 10 mins of data made up of a mix of 3 and 5 minute exposures.

Helix nebula (NGC7293), hAlpha, 36 h total exposure time with Hyperstar 14"/F1.9 with ASI 1600 and RASA 11"/F2.2 with ATIK 460, parallel mounted on a ASA DDM85. Single subframe exposure time between 90 sec unbinned for the center structures and 180 sec 2x2 bin for the faint environmental veils. I am very happy how many structures of the environment are getting visible. I look forward to your feedback! Tenerife November 2017.
I revisited a bunch of previous RGB data and now added about an hour of Hα data. This galaxy really needs it. All those pink areas are regions of intense star formation, where some of the most massive stars are being born. The particularly big pink blob in the upper right is known as NGC 604. It is an emission nebula in another galaxy that is so large and bright that it gets its own designation. Think of really outstanding examples like this in our own sky -- M17 or the Eta Carina Nebula. This one has both of them beat for size and luminance. It only looks small because it is 3 million light years away.
All subframes shot with a Celestron Edge HD 925 at f/2.3 with Hyperstar. RGB data taken over multiple nights with an Atik 314L+ color CCD; hydrogen-alpha data taken with an Atik 414-EX with Atik 7 nm bandpass filter. Preprocessing of images in Nebulosity; registration, channel combination, and processing in PixInsight; final touches in Photoshop.
Now the colour version. During the "Perseid night" I had a lot of luck (and maybe also a kind of skilled serendipity). Tons of luck indead that the meteor is captured in both systems (regarding the 10 sec+ CCD downloading time which is an effective exposure pause). Through the middle of a relatively tiny sky area (FOV 7. 2 x 10. 8 °) I could capture this meteor (which is, however, no Perseid but probably a late Delta-Aquariid) crossing Andromeda Galaxy and with multiple outbursts.
Technique: parallel exposure with two imaging systems:
(1) Canon 200mm/F1.8 (open), SX-36, L-pro filter, 240 sec exposure time,
(2) Canon 200mm/F1.8 (open), Sony A7s (CentralDS modded), ISO 3200, IDAS-V4 filter, 90 sec
both on EQ8 mount unguided.
Final image processed with 32 subframes from each system for the galaxy and the stars resulting in a L-RGB image.
Tenerife, 1180 m alt, 2016-08-12 00:45 UT
Comet 45P, at last there were some subframes usables, with individual background extraction, so that I could integrate some of them. Now the split tail is well visible.
Parallel exposure on ASA DDM 85 mount:
(1) 7 x 60 sec Hyperstar C14/F1.9, Lumicon comet filter, ASI 1600 mono, cooled (-32° C), processed as emerald green in the RGB image.
(2) 7 x 60 sec RASA 11"/F2.2, L-filter, ATIK 490 color, cooled (-18° C)
FOV 1° x 0,9°, location: Tenerife 1180 m altitude. 19:20 h - 19:50 h UT (with many missing subframes due to clouds)
