Sh2-142: The Wizard
Discovered by Caroline Herschel in 1787, Sh2-142 is an open star cluster ~20ly across located ~8.5kly distant. A beautiful emission nebula and star-forming region.

"An Oasis"
Properly known as vdB 48, I don't know if it has any pseudonyms but I loved the mixture of reflective, dust and Ha. vdB is one of my top-3 favourite catalogues.
Some day I'll try this again with a more intentional composition and maybe not forget to cover the light-leaks whilst shooting. Meanwhile, here goes something...
vdB48, Suzi 🔭 SW 8" Quattro, RisingCam, Neodymium filter, 83*180s = 4.15hr

Lobster Claw and Bubble Nebulae
Lots happening here - 3 obvious bright emission nebulae and my first Herbig-Harbo object (HH-170), a tiny grey fuzzy reflection nebula surrounding a newborn star just above the centre of the frame.
About 20hr data on these well-known objects in Cassiopeia and Cepheus. Nebulae processed in the HaHOO palette; stars overlayed in real colour.

Ostatnia aktualizacja oprogramowania i firmware Seestarów (S50 i S30) przyniosła długooczekiwany EQ mode, czyli taki sposób mocowania teleskopu, który zapewnia „jego obrót wokół dwóch, prostopadłych do siebie osi, z których jedna wskazuje na biegun niebieski“[1].
Mniej strat i brak brak efektu rotacji pola.Na pierwszy ogień poszła galaktyka M51, ale właściwym obiektem na noc 22 marca miała być Mgławica Pelikan (IC 5070). No i coś tam wyszło.
Smażenie od ok. 0:30 do 4:30. Tryb mozaiki.Zdjęcie to efekt złożenia 310 klatek po 20 sekund każda.
Oczywiście problem świateł wielkiego miasta i siatki na balkonie chwilowo nierozwiązany. ;-)

Die Andromeda Galaxie ist wohl das Objekt, zu dem ich am Häufigsten zurückkehre. Ich habe schon einige Bilder davon, aber bisher keins, das ich wirklich mochte. Aber dieses mal, ist das anders.
Wusstet ihr, dass sich Andromeda auf Kollisionskurs mit unserer Milchstraße befindet?

The Iris Nebula
NGC7023 aka the Iris Nebula is a reflection nebula 1300 light-years away in Cepheus, about 6 light-years across.
It's particularly impressive caught in the middle of LDN1170, the large swathes of brown dust swirling around.

Yup, it’s the Pleiades again. I needed to test some toys…
Pentax Takumar 300mm f/4 lens - the 18-blade aperture iris is crazy, as were the star halos before I fixed them.
Skywatcher Star-Adventurer mount (haven’t used in ages).
Fuji X-H2 - pixel-shift at 60s subs is amazing.
An hour’s data plus calibrations, processed in #AstroPixelProcessor, #PixInsight and #darktable (#artwithfoss 😀).#astrophotography #scotland #photography #pleiades #messier45 #fujifilm_xseries #universe #deepskyobject
