Our latest target is Sh2-171 known as the Teddybear Nebula, but I've always known it as the 'whale tail' which is much more obvious to me. This is just 1hr on each SHO filter. Looking forward to collecting more data for this. 🐻 🐋 #astrophotography #space

I've been so excited for this arrival! I saw it a few months back and couldn't stop thinking about it. So I bought it 😍 It is still in its wrapping until I get it framed. #art #spaceart @theweeowl.bsky.social

Still not happy with this one of the Monkey Head. Interestingly, I see different possibilities for the head of the 'monkey'. In one rotation, I see a young chimp, the other a gorilla. See the images below and let me know which you see. Monkey Head Nebula #astrophotography

During this half-term break, I am determined to set some time aside for sketching. We have had such an art-filled week at school that I am just fired up for more art! #SciArt #moon

Tried new calibration frames, which improved the background, but we still need a lot more data on this. #astro #astrophotography

For a while now, I've been tired, unwell, and generally run down. Dosed up on antibiotics and cocodomol, and with the rain beating down hard, I decided to do something just for me. I decided to sketch again. 🌙 🌚 🌔 🌧 Name that crater! #MoonHour #Moon
