Aurora Australis, from Shelly Beach at Port MacDonnell, South Australia. Cheeky five hour drive to catch this and so worth it - absolutely breathtaking to see those beams towering over me. Experience of a lifetime.
Look outside NOW if you’re anywhere close to aurora possible tonight - We are in a light polluted car park in central Newcastle and can SEE MOVING LINES ACROSS THE SKY!! With naked eye!! Visible structure and even a touch of green under streetlights 🤩 Literally never had this before.
Running home to get SLR cameras now. Will be up for a late night! #aurora#KP8#astro
Could actually see hints of purple and green with the naked eye. And lines, movement, structure! Never ever thought we’d see that here. Didn’t even see this when we were in the Arctic! 😂
The Elephant's Trunk Nebula IC 1396 was the target of yesterdays clear night and here I would like to share the result:
My first try on a DSO two panel mosaic.
Guiding and banding noise have been quite a problem for this project, well there is always room for improvements...
Disclaimer: This is a "false" color image using a HOO color palette.
Finally got my first proper shot of the Eagle Nebula (M16)!
This target was a real pain to photograph from my location, because I had to get up at 3 AM and M16 still is pretty low in altitude for me... but luckily a gap in the surrounding trees made this 6x600s stack possible.
Obviously Focus and Guiding are not optimal, this is still work in progress to get fixed.
