Pinwheel 2022

maryjohn6781 posted a photo:

My second shot of the Pinwheel galaxy ever (the last is just reprocess of the first photo). It was taken with the same scope (Meade adventure 80/400mm f5 AZ) and same camera (Nikon D3500 IR modified), but this one was tracked on unguided SA 2i on Velbon Sherpa 200D tripod from bortle 4. Actually I plan to shoot a lot this summer, i am going to buy a new telescope and there is a new tower on the hill i am shooting from, so I no longer have to stand in the middle of the forest with creepy sounds of animals coming from every bush around. Unfortunately i didnt polar align well and i didnt have enough time, so i shot only 80 photos at 20 seconds each for total of about 30 minutes (ISO 3200). It was stacked in DSS and processed in Photoshop 2022 with help of starnet version 2 (processing took me as usual about 3 hours with a lot of selective editing). Hope you like it.

?y ????c "Lads - The whole of the moon"

"I pictured a rainbow

You held it in your hands
I had flashes
But you saw then plan
I wandered out in the world for years

While you just stayed in your room
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon
The whole of the moon

You were there in the turnstiles
With the wind at your heels
You stretched for the stars
And you know how it feels
To reach too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw the whole of the moon

I was grounded
While you filled the skies
I was dumb-founded by truths
You cut through lies

I saw the rain, dirty valley
You saw Brigadoon
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon

I spoke about wings
You just flew
I wondered, I guessed, and I tried
You just knew
I sighed

But you swooned
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon
The whole of the moon

With a torch in your pocket
And the wind at your heels
You climbed on the ladder
And you know how it feels

To get too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw the whole of the moon
The whole of the moon"

Cygnus & Lyra

Ant_H. posted a photo:

Last shot from the dark skies of Exmoor, a view of the Cygnus and Lyra constellations. Using a camera with the IR filter removed improves the sensitivity to the red glow of ionised Hydrogen gas clouds. The most obvious is the North America nebula, middle left, just below the bright star Deneb.

Messier 106 Region - 5.7 hours LRGB_LRGB-wm

pa_cosgrove posted a photo:

A new imaging project has been published on Cosgrove's Cosmos!

Messier 106 - is a huge energetic galaxy with a supermassive black hole at its core. It is located 22-25 million light-years away in the constellation of Canes Venatici.

This is a wide-field view that shows not only Messier 106 but also a score of small little galaxies scattered across the image field!

This image is the result of 5.6 hours of LRGB integration with my Askar FRA400 Astropgraph using a ZWO ASI1600MM-Pro camera and an IOptron CEM26 mount.

During galaxy season I always have trouble selecting targets for this widefield scope. Galaxies are typically small and require a longer focal length than this scope has.

I finally settled on the region around M106, as it is filled with a group of small galaxies, and I thought the entire field might be interesting to image.

This was shot over 3 evenings on the nights of 5-29-22, 5-30-22, and 5-31-22.

I was pretty pleased with the color and detail I was able to get with such a small scope. It makes me want to go back next year and capture this with my Astro-Physics 130mm APO and its ASI2600MM-pro camera!

The story of the image and complete processing walk-through can be seen on my website at:

Thanks for looking, and let me know if you have any questions!
