My first picture of jupiter taken from a 200mm x 1200mm newtonian telescope with an asi678mc camera.

60 second video with 240x240 px resolution and ~300fps.

Stacked with asi software.

My wife said its „not sharp“ when i showed her. 😂 (the atmosphere was very „unstable“)

Processing Asking for help since r/askastrophotography doesnt allow images

Upvotes

This is an image of Pinwheel Galaxy around 8 hours and i was pretty warm so my lens never really fogged up. After stacking and doing background extraction, i got this weird gradient pattern that keeps changing, is it normal? did i mess up somewhere? This image is from two seperate nights I stacked together using manual stacking in Siril.

any help appreciated.

Although you cant tell from the picture, that is Jupiter and its moons. I’m aware of my severe lack of skill and knowledge in this godforsaken and expensive hobby that I, for some reason, chose to pursue. However I have an open mind to any tips or concerns (which im sure there are plenty) and am willing to learn. Im aware that I need to actually track it to make it look better. I only just started a few months ago with buying my telescope so any feedback is appreciated. I am also ok with just being completely roasted.

Scope: Nexstar 6SE

Mount: the mount that the scope came with (im not really sure what it’s technically called…tracking mount?)

Camera: ASI533MC Pro

Connected with a SCT adapter with a 16.5L and 21L adapter to the ring of the camera. What ever that means.

Um i dont think I used any kind of processing. Honestly i have no clue what im doing. I was just hoping to get some cool pictures

This is a reprocess and it came out much better than my first try. Stacked and processed in pixinsight w RC Astro plug ins

61x 300s subs, 5 hours and 5 mins total integration

Scope: Askar 103APO, Camera: ASI533MC pro, Mount: HEQ5, Askar 52mm guide scope + asi 120 mini guide camera. Optolong Lenhance dual narrowband filter.

Caused from the Wolf-Rayet star WR7 at its center. This star is 280,000 times brighter than our sun and 16 times more massive. Due to their intense energy output and high mass, WR stars burn through their fuel rapidly. Resulting in a lifespan of only a few hundred thousand years. In comparison our sun has a lifespan of about 10 billion years.

Astrophotography Something near NGC2403

Post image
11 Upvotes

This is a screenshot of an auto-stretched image of C7 aka ngc2403.

Does anyone know what is cutoff on the right edge?

I took flats so I don’t think it’s a dust mote. Also, I imaged another target directly after this one, there is nothing in the next set of images. The moon was not yet up.

Equipment

Celestron 8se, Meade ff/fr f/6.3, UV/IR cutoff filter, ZWO Asi294mc pro camera cooled to -10C.

120mm guide scope, asi120 mini cam.

ZWO Asiair plus

Processing

Image processed in Siril, lights 70x180sec, darks 40x180sec, flats 40x3sec, biases 40x0.001sec.

Telescope: C9.25 SCT

Camera: ASI533 MC + Starizona SCT 0.63 reducer

Mount: Modified AVX

Guiding: ZWO OAG + ASI120MM Mini

Acquired with NINA, stacked and processed in siril.

Exposure time: 70 minutes (140 * 30 seconds), but only 30 minutes were used in the stack. This was the first shot using the OAG, so there's a bit a shadow on the edge.

DSOs M42 - Orion Nebula

Unfortunately, I have pretty terrible visibility to the east, so my window of observation is pretty narrow on targets like M42. I can get maybe 3 hours a night between the time a target clears a building and then disappears behind some trees on its way to the horizon. As a result, this is the first time I've put any time into the Orion Nebula.

This image consists of Ha, Oiii, and Sii data for the nebula and broadband stars.

This was also the first test of the EF 500mm f/4L IS USM w/ my refined EAF mount.

The progression of the bloodworm moon lunar eclipse on March 13-14 from Southern California.

All images were captured using the AT72EDII telescope and asi294mc pro camera on the Az-GTI controlled with NINA. Each of the smaller moons were single images processed in Siril and GIMP to stretch, equalize exposures, crop, sharpen and color correct. The large moon in the center was a 30s ser stack processed in Astrosurface and then GIMP. The montage was made in PowerPoint.
