Can't decide if this is a WIP or a finished image.. Either way, i've been gathering little bits of data here and there - it's 80x3m subs on Barnard 150 and the Fireworks galaxy! Not something I'd usually tackle given how hard dark nebula is to catch from my location, but all the same I was pleased to see this coming up so well in a relatively short time! Taken with the #zwo asi2600air, the Askar SQA55, and all mounted on the AM3 #space #stars #nebula #galaxy

M16, the Pillars of Creation I've always wanted to capture a nice shot of these beautiful pillars and I finally feel like I have now - it's only a short data set as my time on target is incredibly limited for this object which is so low on the horizon for me, none the less - it turned out amazingly well I think. #space #hubble #star #stars #astrophotography

NGC 3718 - OSC Lately I've been having fun capturing galaxies with a superfast rig with a limited focal length, at only 544mm F/L this kind of target poses a challenge! Shown here at native pixel scale, no drizzle. 516x1m subs from my bortle 7 backyard Player One Uranus-C Pro (585) UV/IR cut filter Hyperstar V4 Edge for the EdgeHD 11 EQ8 Mounting Stacked in APP Processed in PixInsight #star #stars #space #astrophotography

The best shot of the Horsehead and Flame that I've ever taken! Data captured during recent live-streams on YouTube 164x2m subs with the HyperStar11v4 for EdgeHD11, Poseidon-C Pro camera cooled to -5c, no filtration other than the standard uv/ir cut, and all from Bortle 7 skies! (image should be mirrored, but to be honest - I forgot to do it!)

How good are your processing skills? Try my #hubblebubblechallenge !! Using my own amateur captured data I decided to try and process just like the Hubble Space Telescope! Want to try for yourself? Video coming this weekend on my YouTube channel! #hubblebubblechallenge #space #nebula #stars #galaxy
