SKYWATCHING 3

[Phil Perry]

Some rainy day reprocesses of old data - Elephant Trunk Nebula with Ritchey Chretien 150mm telescope, and Pelican Nebula with 102mm refractor telescope.

Gathering the data is one thing - getting focused shots with round stars and good mount tracking (and no satellite trails!) then the processing of the raw data into finished images is another!

Absolutely awesome, Phil

 

It shows their great skill, with mounts, tracking mechanisms cameras and post processing.

 

And to think it's the work of so called 'amateurs' in their back yard, with modest sized telescopes.

Galileo would be so stoked!

 

 

Thank you.
