28×180″ ISO1600 (with Astronomik CLS Clip Filter) Canon EF 75-300mm lense @ 105mm – f/4.5
32×90″ ISO1600 Canon EF 75-300mm @ 240mm – f/5.6
Second shot with the Star Adventurer. Unfortunately, the moon was visible until 2.00am… but the waiting was it worth đ Details:Â M31 Andromeda
So, I got my first picture taken with the Skywatcher Star Adventurer. Really nice đ Lens: Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS II
Again I shot M27 (NGC 6853). This time ISO3200. OK, I think I reached the limit of the 100D. Much noise at ISO3200… Anyway… IMO the result is better than the previous shots. I see a bit more details in the nebula structure. The final image is a composition of 60 single shots each 8 seconds. Previous […]

The weather was not so good this evening… but I catched a cloud free 1-hour window đ Here is my first shot of open cluster M39 – NGC 7092.
Almost clear sky tonight… My second shot of M27 nebula (NGC 6853). Exposure time per shot: 13s. I tried to make more shots like before to stack them later, but unfortunately I had to stop shooting… clouds… đÂ
Wonderful clear sky tonight đ Here is my first shot of M27 – NGC 6853.
My first attempt to shot M13 (NGC 6205) star cluster with the Canon EOS 100D on the Skywatcher Explorer 130P. Unfortunately with the Skywatcher 130P I can only focus an object, if I use a 2x Barlow lens to double the focal length. And because of the azimutal GoTo mount, I have to keep the exposure time low: […]
