Last night I tried the Leo triplet. Because I did not use guiding, the maximum exposure time was 45 seconds per picture. Probably too little for the faint galaxies. The recording data and astrometry evaluation.

Easter weekend in Cuxhaven
A short walk around the old fishing harbour on Easter Sunday. Desolate in Corona times. Normally there would be a lot of tourists here in great weather. Besides, the usual fish market was probably planned… …hope dies last…
Cuxhaven Altenwalde
Originally it was only intended to take some pictures of the old Hinrich-Wilhelm-Kopf barracks, but it also offered the opportunity to film the Cuxhaven Küstenheiden nature reserve from above. The video contains a complete 360° turn of the flight site and here you can see the complete area of the nature reserve, the former military […]
Cuxhaven Döse
Yesterday late afternoon in Döse. Of course, the Kugelbake monument must not be missing … It’s still scary how little goes on here in Corona times. It was quite cold, but the weather otherwise first class. Under normal circumstances there would be a lot more people here.
White-tailed Eagle
Short trip to the Stintstedter See and actually lucky. A white-tailed eagle circled shortly over the area. The crow did not like this at all and after about 3 minutes the eagle let himself be driven away. A small flock of grey geese landed on the lake shortly afterwards.
Cuxhaven Sahlenburg
A few impressions from last night in Sahlenburg. There was almost no wind and accordingly the Mavic Mini was calm in the air. It was also possible to fly up to 100m without a message in the DJI-Fly software.
Cuxhaven Marina
After I finished in Duhnen I went to the marina. There are not many people around here on Sundays at this time of day, so it is not so obvious that there are hardly any tourists in Cuxhaven at the moment.
Cuxhaven Duhnen
Yesterday and today we visited Duhnen without the usual tourists. Frightening, when you compare how it normally looks like at Easter time. Hardly people on the streets or in the beach area. Beach chairs are not there and all shops are closed. Today in the early morning I was there again to film the area […]
House sparrows
House sparrows and tree sparrows are making a hell of a racket these days. You can see them everywhere around the house. The feeding ground is rarely empty. In the Moment they also seem to be very fond of the flower buds of the rock pear…
NGC 2244 – Rosetta nebula
Last night, I tried my hand at the Rosette Nebula. Instead of the usual Nikon D5200 I had put on the Nikon D800 this time. The nebula has a large extension and with the crop camera the angle of view might have been too small. Of the 75 lights originally made, only 44 were ultimately […]
