The Whole Shebang From Mersing

Post by cataclysm »

Hi folks,
Another year going by, just want to share my favourite astrophotos from Mersing. After the compilation, I must say we are pretty please with what we had accumulated over the 2 years period. These photos were captured from an assortment of imaging systems with optics from ultra wide fisheye, medium fl tele lenses, short refractors to 8" newtonian, but common among them are my 2 trusty modified Canon cameras that captured these wonderful images. So here goes:

M31
Image
Rho Ophiuchi & Antares
Image
M8
Image
Omega Centauri
Image
Pipe Nebula
Image
Rosette Nebula
Image
Gamma Cygni Nebula
Image
Eta Carina Nebula
Image
Prawn Nebula
