Clear skies for a short time yesterday evening. With the Dwarf II, this is no problem, since long setup times are eliminated. At first I had thought that I could try my hand at M74, but there was still the house in the way at this time of year. So I set my sights on […]

M27 – Dumbbell Nebula
In the night from Tuesday to Wednesday it was wonderfully clear. For about 20 minutes a cloud field passed through, so that I could use only 30 of the originally taken 40 pictures. Nevertheless, I am actually quite satisfied. The focal length could be larger, ok. Shooting Data
Karl Olfers Square
A shot from this morning at Karl Olfers Square. Haus Handwerk from 1928-1930 is one of the many architectural monuments in the city of Cuxhaven.

Aurora over the North Sea
Finally it worked out again. The last times it was here every time cloudy or so partly cloudy that the auroras could not be seen. After 30 minutes on site, too many clouds came over the sky again. Beamer are not to be seen, but nevertheless I am quite happy with the results.
