Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS, over the Chiricahua mountains!

All the way down in southern New Mexico!!

This is NGC7380, The Wizard Nebula

Sunset over the Chiricahua Mountains.

This is NGC7635, the Bubble Nebula in Cassiopeia. 3hrs of 5 minutes exposures.

This is NGC7331, The Deer Lick Group on the left. And Stephan’s Quintet on the right. They are in the constellation Pegasus.

Data from the past couple nights. This is Sh2-157, The Lobster Claw Nebula in Cassiopeia. 6hrs of 5 minute exposures.

Im at my observatory in Oregon now. I’m using my 12”f4 newtonian for this image. This is IC63, The Ghost of Cassiopeia.

From Christmas Valley, Oregon. M8, The Lagoon Nebula, The Trifid Nebula and others.

From Christmas Valley, Oregon. M8, The Lagoon Nebula, The Trifid Nebula and others.

I’m at my observatory in Christmas Valley, Oregon. This is data from the past two nights. M8, The Lagoon Nebula, The Trifid Nebula and quite a few other cataloged structures.

Monsoon season is upon us in southern New Mexico!!

Last nights image. LDN57 and lots of Barnards Dark nebula.

It’s been awhile since I posted an image. This is IC4604 in Scorpio.

Last nights image. The Vela Supernova Remnant. In the southern constellation Vela.

Part of Sh2-312 in the constellation Pyxis. Roughly 6 hrs of data, 10 min subs.

Sh2-308, The Dolphin Head Nebula in the constellation Canis Major. 59, 10 minute exposures. 9.8hrs.

Messing around with some seldom used (by me) software.

This is SH2-248, The Jellyfish Nebula, and Sh2-252, The Monkey Head Nebula.

Last nights image. NGC2177, the Seagull Nebula. 84 - 5 minute exposures.

Last nights image. NGC2264, The Cone Nebula in the constellation Monoceros.

Another one from a couple nights ago. M42, M43 and the Running Man Nebulas

NGC2237, The Rosette Nebula, in the constellation Monoceros. The open star cluster in the center is designated NGC2244. 55 - 3 minute exposures.

This is NGC1909, The Witch Head Nebula, in the constellation Eridanus. 10 hours OSC data.

And an annotated image.

Last nights image. This is an Hii region in the constellation Auriga. It is 27, 5 minute exposures.

Another night of no imaging!

One more.

On my walk today I saw 3 of these guys out exploring. It that time of year, looking for a mate. This guy was about 2” diameter.

And a Finder Chart incase you’d like to know where it is in the sky.

There’s a lot going on in this image. Here’s an annotated image of all the objects.

I added 4.5hrs of data to the last image I shared. What does everyone think? Just right, over done?

Not too bad for the limited amount of data!

This is NGC2174, The Monkey Head Nebula. I’ll be adding more data to it tonight. Hopefully!!

Bacon wrapped jalapeño poppers going in the smoker!!

Another nice bolt!!

Cool lighting and thunderstorms going on!!

This is IC1805, The Heart Nebula.

IC1848, The Soul Nebula from last night.

Last night’s image. M45, The Pleiades, In Taurus.

M31, The Andromeda Galaxy. A member of our Local Group. Imaged last night from my observatory in Rodeo, New Mexico.

I added 2 hrs of data from last night to the original data and cropped it. I’m liking it!!

Last nights image. NGC869 and NGC884, aka The Perseus Double Cluster. First light with a new scope.

Beautiful, dark, clear sky here in Southwest New Mexico!

B&W, The Horsehead and Flame Nebula in the constellation Orion.

I’ve been struggling with this image to get it right. It is LRGB data. This is M83, also known as the Southern Pinwheel Galaxy. In the constellation Hydra, it approximately 15 million light years away from us.

NGC2264, same as last image, different FOV, different scope different camera. This is also a CMOS camera. Prior image was with a canon 7d Mark II.
