Crazy Imaging Weekend
Can we say a metric fuckton images?
I knew you could.
So many in fact, that I'm STILL processing them. That's what happens when you have 3 nearly Moonless nights to image. I have images of Saturn, Jupiter, Venus, several galaxies, a galaxy cluster, open star clusters and all manner of weird-ass (and beautiful) nebulae.
Let's start out with some "red" nebulae.
The "Medusa Nebula" - in Gemini.
8-inch f/4, Canon 1000D (modified), 12 x 5 minute exposures.
NGC 2174-5
(8-inch f/4 Astrograph, Canon 1000D, 12 x 5 minute exposures.
This nebula is sometimes called the "monkey head nebula". What do you think?
Much, much more to come....
