Going to spend all summer (probably) on making this 3x2 mosaic

Rosette Nebula in SHO ~7h

No I do not, and I've never had issues on the secondary. Only the primary dewed so far, so I've put a heater band around that one (though tbh, I don't know how effective that is.)

ZWO ASI 1600 MM-C . Actually here's a pic of my entire setup, but with nothing plugged in. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/593904656133128222/689149332540358735/IMG_20200207_013356.jpg ⋅ EQ6R ⋅ 130PDS ⋅ ZWO autofocuser and filterwheel ⋅ zwo 290mm for t...

Got in 2 hours of Rosette in hydrogen alpha tonight

Focuser obstruction is pretty strong with this one, but I bought a moonlite focuser that should hopefully ...

All of them should be there.

Website auto blocked because it was deemed malicious.

btw the rest of our photos are here. https://deepnighttech.com.au/image/Grampians/ All the raw and jpeg. I only really processed the Orion ones but there is others of the Milkyway and Magellanic clouds. You get a sense of how dark it was given the shadows of the clouds and trees just look black. Wo...

Winter is the best!  It has the longest and clearest nights :) Yeah well, my equipment begs to differ lol. My mount stops functioning well past -15C (the motor slows down) and it regularly gets below -20C to -25C at night. Also the powdery snow and frequent frosts makes going outside at night durin...

Nice! Winter is setting in so I think my season is over. Time to go into hibernation until late March

Welp. Weather is not going to cooperate anymore so I'm stopping at 20.25 hours on bubble.

Well I ended up giving up on helix because it was too much of a pain to shoot, but here it is:  https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/446814919904460810/631740130658615306/helixe.png Instead, I'm now shooting the Bubble Nebula + Northern Lagoon Nebula + part of the Lobster Claw Nebula 101x300s (8h2...

Welp got 25x300 frames of OIII in so I could do an HOO combine...

Alright well few days of clear skies for the next week (I hope I didn't just jinx it) so new targets! Helix Nebula - NGC 7293. Very hard target from 45 degree north. Relatively large and dim target. Max altitude is at 25 degrees and I can only shoot it for about 2.5 hours per night. Here's 29x300s. ...

That's my setup. Telescope is a 130mm aperture / 650mm focal length scope (Skywatcher 130pds)
