It was actually supposed to be the Komet 12P/Pons-Brooks. But the clouds put a spanner in the works. The sky over Neuwerk, on the other hand, was largely clear.

NGC 4565 – Needle Galaxy
A shot with the Dwarf II from yesterday evening. However, more focal length is necessary for the galaxy… Recording data
Cuxhaven Duhnen
A few pictures from yesterday afternoon in Duhnen… …with the good weather, the beach was really busy. In Cuxhaven, however, not all that glitters is gold. The town could also pay a little more attention to looking more stylish outside the spa areas. The old Gepp Bau car dealership has been empty for […]
12P/Pons-Brooks
An image (from 50 individual images) of the comet that could possibly be visible to the naked eye from April. Predicting comets is always a bit difficult, but the development of the magnitude until May could make it possible. However, it will probably not be as bright as C/2020 F3 Neowise in 2020.

Altluneberg
A short trip to Altluneberg. I wanted to see if the manor was suitable for some shots. On the way there, a short stop at the Hokemeyer Hus in Sellstedt. Once we arrived in Altluneberg, we first took a short walk to the local flood area Im Gliesch. And finally the manor from […]
Another DWARF II
A somewhat older image with the DWARF II. Here I photographed the area around the Flame and Horsehead Nebula. The image is from January 9, 2024. The image was taken directly from the DWARF II, as I was unable to stack the individual shots afterwards despite several attempts. The differences to the Skywatcher telescope […]
Two times DWARF II – Part 2
The second object was the Orion Nebula. Photographed many times, but always beautiful to look at… Aufnahmedaten
Two times DWARF II
Yesterday evening it was clear again. I was able to set up the small DWARF II once again and photograph two objects. Since the small telescope has some problems with darker objects, I pointed it at two old acquaintances this time. The M33 galaxy is one of the brighter and above all larger appearing […]
IC342
An image from yesterday evening. The image of the IC342 galaxy was taken with the DWARF II with an exposure time of 1 hour. IC 342 is a barred spiral galaxy with an active Hubble-type SAB(rs)cd galactic nucleus in the constellation of Giraffe in the northern starry sky. It is around 11 million light […]
