Last night I promised that there would be Some Astronomy Happening.

Because we had SDA deployed on the front patio roof, we only had a couple of hours.

However...

I was able to get a far better shot of of #IC2177 ( the #SeagullNebula ) with the #Dwarf2 than I expected.

Sadly my attempt at #GUM6 aka #SH2_302 aka #RCW7 ( the #SnowmanNebula ) was a lot less successful.

Tonight, I am revisiting both. This time I'm shooting a full night for them. Let's see what we get!

Meantime, here are the shots from last night.

It is the end of #Kambarang and the start of #Birak here in #Noongar Country. With that the Emu is setting early in the evening. As compensation, we are now getting the #EtaCarinaNebula instead.

So last night I did a mosaic shot of with with my #Dwarf3 #SmartTelescope from my back yard.

Only a couple of hours effective exposure, but I am really happy with the results.

2hrs 13 minutes, 60s@60, Ha/OIII filter.

Postprocessed in the #DwarfLab Stellar Studio and #snapseed.
