Rather than clutter up the Where You Are Photos topic, I figured it was probably best to start a seperate thread. Please consider it open for all to post their night sky photos/images regardless of equipment used.
To kick things off…
The Elephant’s Trunk, part of the nebula IC1396 in the constellation Cephus. This target needs a lot more exposure time, but considering I was learning new software and equipment, I’ll take it.
This is the Milkyway taken with my iPhone 11 Pro using the night mode… You can see the constellations of Sagittarius and Scorpius, so this is looking directly towards the galaxy’s core.
I have been trying out a piece of image processing software called PixInsight. It’s not cheap, but it can do some clever things to get the best out of your images. Combined with some payware plugin’s it is quite remarkable how it can eliminate background noise and sharpen detail. I might have to get my wallet out once the trial period is over.
" first is juicy steak, second here are bbq ribs … and this third one is hot dog, you can see onions and mustard, so then with sausage right in the core "
disclaimer: joke above doesnt work for hot dog lovers
