Wow. Those are fabulous.

A little closer look from last night. Captured 5000 frames and used the best 1000 to stack the image.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1527094888.jpg

holySHEET!!

you ever do a big print of that..i want one!!

now go and start a thread titled:

"can anyone tell me about high-res plotters?" :D

Thanks, it's actually a pretty small file using a small chipped camera. This is part of my equipment learning process. As I gain experience and knowhow I should be able to graduate to larger files and camera chips.

My first attempt at Jupiter. Definitely room for improvement.

good time of year for Jupiter.

Got a little better evening of capturing Jupiter last night. This is a stack of the best 100 frames out a 7000 frame video.

Incredible pics you have made..esp post 142.
A great hobby...envious here.

One more from last night. I missed focus on this one, the stars are kinda bloated but I thought I'd share anyway. This is the Veil Nebula, a Super Nova remnant. Lots of Hydrogen, oxygen and sulfur make up the cloud. This is estimated to be roughly 1400 lightyears from Earth. The Star went nova between 6000 and 3000 bc.

Eric, do you have a good southern view for Mars in July? Declination is on the order of -25 and that's too low for my sky.

I can see it but it's pretty low. Can' wait to move South.

Last nights Veil Nebula in Cygnus captured last night. Canon 6D Mk II and Televue NP-127 telescope with .8x reducer. F4.2, ISO 6400, 10 each dark, bias, and flat frames. 27 light frames at 90 seconds each for 40 minutes total integration.

And last nights Andromeda galaxy. Not real pleased with this one, lots of noise, but hey, it was fun capturing it. 27 minutes of light exposures.

The pic

Really, really nice on that one.
Wow, also very nice on this one. It looks like you used the Muddy Waters filter (blue)! ;)

Yeah, definitely messed up the colors on that one. Lots to learn on my end.

Saturn over the weekend. Not great but not bad for 1 billion miles away. Captured with the 6" refractor and QHY183 camera.http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1529956156.jpg

Nice, now I want the next to look like the second that you posted of Jupiter!

I never saw the cassini division. I had my scope for a bunch of years when the rings were closer to edge-on. My binoculars at 20x60 will show the bands on Jupiter, moons for Jupiter and Saturn, and the gaps between the rings and Saturn, but not the division at least, not that I've ever been able to see.

You can do better, that was a bad night. You can easily resolve the Encke Division.

I expect nothing but A+ images with your setup! :)

I'm working on it. Yes, seeing was crap. I am right now limited on the resolution I can achieve with the 6" refractor. I'll add a larger, longer focal length telescope later down the road. That'll help resolve the tiny objects. It doesn't help that I'm way up North, under the jet stream, and looking through lots of atmosphere. :(
