On October 25, the partial solar eclipse visible from Germany took place. At first it did not look as if the weather would play along. But the second half of the approx. 2 hours it was clear. I had both telescopes set up. At the CGEM26 with the Skywatcher ED 72/420 I had mounted […]

NGC 281 – Pacman Nebula
Last night I photographed the emission nebula NGC 281 (Pacman Nebula) with the Skywatcher Evostar. Originally I planned to take 50 single images, but later clouds came up and so there were only 22 usable images. Aufnahmedaten
Perseids V
At the end of this year’s Perseids sessions two more images from August 13th. The first one, this time in format 4:5 (portrait mode), was taken with the Fuji X-T3. It shows a Perseid between the Pleiades and the planet Mars. And here is also a picture with the startrails to the X-T3 session. […]
Perseids IV
In the night from August 12 to 13, that is at the peak of the Perseids, we were lucky to have clear skies. With temperatures of at least 17°C conditions prevailed that made it possible to spend the night outside. Unfortunately we had also full moon exactly in this night, which strongly impaired the brightness […]
Perseids III
Last night I went out again to make another attempt with images of the Perseids. This time it was much more successful concerning the quantity. However, there was no Perseids as bright as last night. The shots were then merged into a single image using PS. This time I used the Fuji GFx with the […]
Perseids II
Letzte Nacht habe ich mich noch einmal an den Perseiden versucht. Zunächst bin ich vor Mitternacht nach Altenbruch gefahren. Wiederum gelangte nur eine Perseide auf den Sensor. Sehr hell, hatte ich diese bereits während des Fotografierens gesehen. Danach bin ich – da es zusätzlich noch eine Polarlichtvorhersage gab – noch zur Alten Liebe gefahren. […]
Perseids
In the night from Saturday to Sunday I had set up my Nikon D500 with the Samyang 135mm and photographed the radiant of the Perseids between 11 pm and about 4 am. Unfortunately, I was only able to capture one Perseid on the sensor in the entire 5 hours. OK, the peak is around August […]
NLCs above Grimmershörn
Yesterday evening it finally worked out with strong NLCs. As a location was again the Grimmershörn bay chosen. The NLCs were however NNE, so the Kugelbake could be taken up only as edge phenomenon. Detailview with Mittelplate At the beginning the NLCs were more compact and more east oriented. 1s video (25 frames) taken […]

Summer sun
With the sun high in the sky last Thursday I made a panorama of four single images of the sun. The image was taken with the Skywatcher GTi mount and the Fuji X-T3 on the Maksutov 1300mm combined with the Kenko 1.5 teleconverter.
