This is the nicest photo I've ever taken of a bunch of dust.
This image of part of Corona Australis includes the Corona Australis Molecular Cloud, one of the nearest star formation regions to Earth.
Turns out this is a challenging target for the Thirty Millimetre Telescope, especially when the Moon is up! I put a total of 14.3 hours of exposure time into a 3 panel mosaic and I still think I need to revisit this target with some darker skies (and better flat field calibrations) to do a better job of it. I'm calling this a work in progress until then.

Meanwhile I've been struggling to get an aesthetically pleasing result out of this other bunch of stars, the Small Magellanic Cloud. Plenty of data (about 8 hours 20 minutes of total exposure time) but it can't massage it into a pleasing JPEG. Maybe I just don't like the SMC.

My god, it's full of stars.
M24, the Small Sagittarius Star Cloud, and neighbouring bits and pieces. Just over 4 hours 10 minutes of total exposure time over the last two nights with the little Seestar S30 Pro and its UV/IR cut filter. Not bad considered how irritatingly bright the Moon was being at the time. Processed in Siril with SyQon and VeraLux scripts.
I should have been using the light pollution filter under conditions like that, but I've already done all the big HII regions that are conveniently placed at this time of year so I've been trying to do stars and dust despite the Moon.
Edit: Full res, with *all* the stars, here https://drhotdog.smugmug.com/Nature/Seeing-Stars/i-B7XMtVm/A

ZWO Seestar S30 Pro smart telescope review

Astronomers classify M101 as a "grand design" spiral galaxy because its spiral arms are so unusually prominent and well-defined. Those bright, bluish knots you see scattered throughout the arms are massive regions of active star formation, where enormous clouds of hydrogen gas are giving birth to brilliant new star clusters.

And finally, proper stack of the 5 1/2 hours of data I got on the Helix nebula over the course of four nights in inner Melbourne. #space #astrophotography #seestar #astrodon #astronomy

And the same images again, but with some basic post-processing applied to get rid of the ridiculous brightness gradient from millions of inner city lights. #space #astrophotography #seestar #astrodon #astronomy

Another successful overnight rooftop imaging run. The Moon is still very new, so I decided to image without the light pollution filter for a while.
Globular cluster Omega Centauri, Messier 24 (the Sagittarius Star cloud) and the Helix Nebula.

Obscure globular cluster Palomar 10, 19000 light years away in Sagitta. Note the improvement in picture quality over a year ago through the use of an equatorial mount.

The overnight bounty off the :seestar_s30: from the city.
The fighting dragons of Ara, the Corona Australis molecular cloud, the Helix nebula and the Sculptor galaxy with globular cluster NGC 288.
These are stacks off the seestar, they’ve not been post-processed to get rid of the light pollution gradient.
