Well, it's summer time which finally means clearer skies in the Pacific NorthWest so time to do some imaging. The last week has been fairly productive. Of course, lots of daylight means I can't start imaging until at least 10:30-11:00 and have to wrap it up by 4:00- 4:30.

Monday and Tuesday I trained the scope on a Galaxy I've never captured before. A small one called the Fireworks galaxy. Captured exposures over two consecutive nights for this one.



Thursday and Friday evenings I pointed to the Elephant Trunk nebula.



Saturday evening the Crescent nebula near Cygnus.



All shot with the William Optics FLT-120 refractor, ZWO 2600 color camera with light pollution filter and an iOptron GEM-45 mount. All controlled with the ZWO ASI-Air and apple tablet.
