Map of the Moon – 09/24
The first result of my “Moon Cartography Project” – further versions of my moon map may follow.
Four open star clusters in Cassiopeia: among others, Caldwell 10 and Messier 103. A truly beautiful frame with simply stunning stars.
Sh2-236 material that I originally created for a “with OWB” vs “without OWB” filter test. Somehow, it feels like a shame not to develop an image from it.
A 22-hour project that fit almost perfectly on the full-frame sensor. The Cygnus Loop in Cygnus is a great late summer object.
A few open star clusters—M39, NGC 7082, NGC 7062—and an asterism, NGC 7071, in the constellation Cygnus. My result after just one night.
In August, there was quite a bit of activity on the Sun. I also tried my luck once.
I photographed the Elephant’s Trunk Nebula again, achieving an enhanced image with better equipment and longer exposure time across four sessions.
A collage with 8 meteors from the Perseid meteor shower on August 12, 2024.
If he smiles at me so warmly at bedtime, I just have to take a picture of him. – Our Moon.
