Jupiter Great Red Spot

This capture captured the Great Red Spot.

Catalina C/2013 US10

Not very often that I image a comet, but I caught one tonight!  Stacked on the comet, so the stars are streaking.

Jupiter

My favorite planet to image.  Jupiter looks different every year,

This image is the result of combining 14,000 frames.

California Nebula and Wide Field Orion

The last few days, I've been trying to image Orion.  So far, I took enough mosaics to show the Orion Nebula and the Horsehead and Flame Nebulas in the same image.

This will be an ongoing project.  The goal will be to attempt to get the entire constellation.

Took a break last night and imaged the California Nebula.  This is a 2-frame mosaic.

Heart and Soul mosaic

Re-imaged the Heart and Soul using the AT72ED and .8 reducer to slightly widen the field.  Created this mosaic to show the proximity of these 2 objects.

Messier 8 and Messier 20

Two objects which lie near to eachother in the sky are the Lagoon and Trifid Nebulas.  Both located in Sagittarius.

This object was the first image while using a .8 focal reducer/field flattener on the AT72ED.
