I am now up to 1450 images in this. I need to work out how to get the over exposed trapezium area right 🤔.

Witch Head Nebula IC 2118 is an extremely faint reflection nebula believed to be an ancient supernova remnant or gas cloud illuminated by nearby supergiant star Rigel in the constellation of Orion. #photography #astronomy #astronomer #darkskys666 #astrophotography

This image shows a globular cluster known as NGC 104, or 47 Tucanae, since it is part of the constellation of Tucana (The Toucan) in the southern sky. It is one of the brightest globular clusters in the night sky. #photography #astronomy #astronomer #darkskys666

I wasn't happy with my editing of the Rosette Nebula, so I tonded it down, and I'm much happier.

The Rosette Nebula (also known as Caldwell 49) is a region located near one end of a giant molecular cloud in the Monoceros region of the Milky Way Galaxy. 1386 10sec images combined to create this mosaic. #photography #astronomy #astronomer #darkskys666

Captured another 45 minutes on Orion Nebula until the clouds rolled in again. Can't wait until I have enough to do a final stack. #photography #astronomy #astronomer #darkskys666 #space

Jupiter and 4 of her moons. The SeeStar S50 isn't great for planetary photography. #space #photography #astrophotography #darkskys666 #astronomy

I tried alas, but it wasn't to be 25 min and 20sec mark, and he bloody clouds rolled in. It was fun while it lasted.

New night new target, let's hope the clouds don't come back.

There was a 20 minute break in the clouds. As it was M 42 or nothing, I went for it. #photography #astrophotography #space #astronomy www.instagram.com/darkskys666?...

Our moon, it's still raining here so this is one of the first images I took with the SeeStar S50. www.instagram.com/darkskys666?... #astrophotography #moon #photography #astronomy #astronomer

It's raining, so I re-edited M 42 Orion Nebula. As usual, with Google Photos, Lightroom, and Photoshop apps on my phone. #astrophotography #space #photography #universe #astronomy

Not all that happy with this one, I will need to revisit it. The Horse Head Nebula IC 434 is a bright emission nebula in the constellation Orion. @darkskys666 @seestar.official #photographers #photography #astronomy #astronomer www.instagram.com/darkskys666?...

I attempted a mosaic of M 42 Orion Nebula. Unfortunately, it failed, but I managed to at least get this image now trying again, so fingers crossed 🤞. www.instagram.com/darkskys666?... #orion #space #darkskys666 ##outerspace #astrophotography #photography

The Dumbbell Nebula (Messier 27, and NGC 6853) is a planetary nebula in the constellation Vulpecula. At its brightest it is easily visible and is a popular observing target in amateur telescopes and binoculars. www.instagram.com/darkskys666?... #photography #space #astrophotography ##outerspace
