Re: Jupiter and Saturn Apparition 2021
After almost three weeks since the last planetary session, I had finally overcome my laziness to go out again early dawn for more Jupiter shots. However, despite the apparently steady skies from visual estimates, the seeing turned out to be less than optimal and only could be described as fair to po...

Great shots of the Makarian's Chain and its rich assortments of galaxies!

Re: My astrophotography 2021
Great work on the attempt to capturing the lunar eclipse! I simply gave up on imaging due to the weather and how low the Moon was during totality.
It's always the process and untold hard work that goes behind each picture that counts in astrophotography, not the images by themselves.

Re: Jupiter and Saturn Apparition 2021
Thanks! I always have to fight the temptation to rack up the wavelets settings in Registax during processing.

Re: Jupiter and Saturn Apparition 2021
Jupiter I had a bout of good seeing in the early morning hours of last Saturday, and therefore proceeded to capture Jupiter even though it's altitude is around 50 degrees above the horizon. Jupiter continues to exhibit fascinating details on its disc, especially around the Great Red Spot, where turb...

Jupiter and Saturn Apparition 2021
In the blink of an eye, 2021 is almost half gone. But fret not, astrophotographers like us are always kept busy with all kinds of targets to shoot year round, so we'll never feel like time has been unduly wasted. (Except on cloudy nights haha) This post is devoted to Jupiter and Saturn imagery, and ...

M8 Lagoon Nebula and surroundings
This is the first light image of my newly acquired Esprit 100ED apo refractor scope taken over 3 nights. Personally I am very satisfied with the end results after some light processing in PixInsight, and this is easily one of the best astrophotos I have ever taken. I like the deep blues in the core ...
