Last night it was finally clear again. However, the moon was also meanwhile back to 89% and on top of that quite windy.
M51 – Whirlpool Galaxy (Cropped)
The focal length of my telescope is quite short for such objects. Shown above is a crop which was upsampled afterwards. The (almost) uncropped image looks like this.

Yesterday the weather was finally good enough for us to drive the 300km to East Westphalia to photograph two Gehry architectures. First stop was in Bad Oeynhausen at the Forum Energie Innovation. Then we went to the MARTa Herford… … and back to Bad Oeynhausen once again.
A picture from today in the early afternoon. A panorama of 7 individual images with the Fuji GFX and the Zeiss Biometar 80mm on the Hartblei adapter. After cropping, this resulted in an image with 35158×5868 pixels.
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.
… Deine Astrofotos sind – wie die gesamte Palette – immer wieder ein Hingucker, bin begeistert!
