Open cluster NGC6823, with surrounding nebula SH2-86 and open cluster NGC6803 (left) in Vulpecula. Image taken 24th September 2025.

The great thing about reprocessing and comparing old images is that you can spot something you've never known existed. Here's Brocchi's Cluster, the Coathanger with some faint, blue reflection nebulae just above it.

Another image of Comet C/2025 A6 (Lemmon) taken yesterday morning.

Ha image taken last night, of part of The Soul Nebula, with added one-shot colour data taken in September 2024.

Wider view of Comet C/2025 A6 (Lemmon) taken this morning.

Close-up of part of IC1848, The Soul Nebula in Hydrogen Alpha.

Getting much deeper into The Bat Nebula with almost five and a half hours of data. I need a whole lot more to really bring the Squid Nebula out. Onwards and upwards.

Comet C/2025 A6 (Lemmon) taken this morning. Combined monochrome and one-shot colour images.

I managed a few subs between the clouds last night and added them to some taken in December last year. This is the Bat & Squid Nebula in Cepheus. The Squid is just starting to appear. I've found my next project. 😃

The central core of Messier 31, The Andromeda Galaxy, taken this evening.

I went for an aquatic target tonight, the Seahorse Nebula.

A quick capture of a supernova in a distant galaxy was taken a few nights ago.

Another image taken last night. Messier 16, The Eagle Nebula in the constellation of Serpens.

Tonight, I added more data, bringing the total to 14 hours of data to help improve this image.

I captured more data tonight to add to yesterday's Messier 33 image. 😃

Another image taken last night, showing the Ha regions in Messier 33, the Triangulum Galaxy. I'll try and add a bit more data to this tonight.

I managed to take almost another 3 hours of data on this area of sky last night, so this is now almost 10 hours of data collected over 4 separate nights. It still needs a bit more, so it is an ongoing project.

Despite the bright Moon, I managed to capture another two hours of the area around reflection nebula vdB 152 in Cepheus. Everything is now starting to lift out of the background. This is nearly six hours. I'm hoping to add a few more hours to this yet.

I managed to capture another hour of data to add to this ongoing and gradually improving image tonight. Hopefully, there will be a lot more to add to it in the coming weeks.

I managed to stack another 30 minutes of data to my image taken last night. Reprocess, I managed to remove a horrible gradient that made me crop the left-hand side of the image in the original post.

Four and a half hours of data captured for this tonight. I'll try and add some more another night to see how much more I can tease out of this faint nebula. The bright blue area is the reflection nebula vdB152.

Sagitta and Vulpecula area. Can you spot the dark Loch Ness Monster above the Coathanger and Messier 27? Restacked and reprocessed image taken 5th June 2024.

Now that is very interesting. Superimposing the flipped image of the Whirlpool Galaxy on itself and changing the layer to difference. It obliterates most of the galaxy, showing just how symmetrical those spiral arms are.

I've just noticed how symmetrical Messier 51, the Whirlpool Galaxy, is. Flipping an image of it, it 'almost' looks the same.

There were some nice features on the Sun yesterday. I have posted more on my Flickr site: www.flickr.com/photos/eagle...

Although the forecast "clear night" wasn't, I managed to catch the dark Loch Ness Monster Nebula in Vulpecula with reflection nebula vdB 126. Plus this nebulous "hole" in Cygnus. So many targets, too many cloudy nights.

I had a fairly short imaging session last night. This is the emission nebula SH2-112 and surrounding nebulosity in Cygnus, captured in Hydrogen Alpha.

I captured just one image last night. Comet C/2025 K1 (ATLAS).

This is another image taken last night. It is part of NGC 7822 in Cepheus. I managed to capture 20x 300-second exposures before it started to get murky around 2 a.m. Considering the bright Moon, I wasn't expecting that much, but it's turned out OK.

There's a faint comet in Hercules at the moment. This is Comet C/2025 K1 (ATLAS), sporting quite a nice tail. Stacking exactly on the comet's position was challenging, hence the wobbly star trails.

How technology has changed this amazing hobby. This image of Messier 31, The Andromeda Galaxy, was taken last night by a SeeStar S30. Despite the virtually full Moon, it has really handled this well. I did do some post-processing on the SeeStars stacked image.

A bit of an experiment in the early hours last night, trying to bring out the Hydrogen Alpha regions in Messier 31, The Andromeda Galaxy. One to try properly once we get proper dark nights back.

Last night was another great night of imaging until 4am. Here are a few faint Hydrogen Alpha regions.

There was also a lot of faint, dusty stuff available for imaging in Ha last night. www.flickr.com/photos/eagle...

It was another reasonable night for imaging last night, until it got murky. This is the Pacman Nebula in Cassiopeia, with a close-up of the central region. Want to see more? Go to: www.flickr.com/photos/eagle...

Another image from Monday night / Tuesday morning. NGC 7635, The Bubble Nebula, created by combining narrowband filtered images. More of my images are posted here: www.flickr.com/photos/eagle...

I have produced an animatd GIF showing the supernova in NGC7331 compared to an image I took in September 2021: As animated GIFs don't play here, please follow this link: www.facebook.com/share/v/129J...

Another one from last night. NGC 7308, The Wizard Nebula. I only managed to capture 10 subs before the clouds rolled in.

A colour image of NGC7331 taken by the Schools' Observatory. Two stretches, one to highlight supernova and the other for the fainter spiral arms.

40 million years ago, a star in a distant galaxy (NGC7331 in Perseus) came to an extremely dramatic end of life as a supernova. We are only just starting to see this now as the light races past us. It's been cloudy for ages, so I used the Schools' Observatory to capture this image.

A quick jaunt to one of my favourite places tonight to view the stunning new full dome show from NSC Creative. 😍 It's Madness, I tell you.

Yay!! Not captured from home, but I'm really pleased to have finally caught it. More details here: www.star-gazing.co.uk/WebPage/a11p...

Before it went all misty on July 12th, I managed to capture one sub of colour data to blend with my Ha image taken in September 2023. Those cosmic pillars are just amazing. More to be captured very soon.

I had overlooked this image taken by the SeeStar S30 while in Portugal last month. This is IC4604, a reflection nebula close to Antares in Scorpius. More details and my latest images are posted here: www.flickr.com/photos/eagle...

I had a cracking all-nighter last night. Well, it's not very long at this time of year. I failed to capture the solar system interloper yet again! But I was pleased to get more stonking Cyngus nebulosity. As the sky brightened, I swapped cameras to capture Saturn. Now very tired, but satisfied. 😁

I know I'm grasping at straws here, but I may have (JUST) caught the solar system interloper two nights ago. More details about it here: www.star-gazing.co.uk/WebPage/a11p...

I tried and failed to capture the solar system interloper last night. I think I was pointing the scope at the correct part of the sky.🤣 I'll be better armed from now on as I've got more details and added maps to my blog to help find it. www.star-gazing.co.uk/Blog

I had a very productive day and night yesterday. 😃 If you'd like to see more, visit my Flickr Page: www.flickr.com/photos/eagle...

A very interesting object has been discovered, which looks like it could be an interstellar visitor to our solar system. More details here: www.star-gazing.co.uk/WebPage/a11p...
