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
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
Spaghetti al Pomodoro
No, not a delicious pasta recipe but the so-called Spaghetti Nebula was my object last night. Since the exposure time was only about 3.5 hours at aperture 2, it is of course not comparable with other images (usually from about 10 hours exposure time). But I am still quite satisfied with the result. The […]
Rosette-Nebula
Last night it was finally clear again; at least until about 11 pm. An opportunity to photograph the Rosette Nebula NGC 2244. Originally I didn’t think that with “only” 2.5 hours exposure time I would get much out of it, but I was proved wrong. OK, more is always good, but here in the north […]
Veil Nebula
Yesterday evening it was actually – and against all expectations – clear for a few hours. With the iOptron Skyguider, the Fuji X-T5 and the Samyang 135mm I ventured to the Veil Nebula once more. I had to reduce the Veil Nebula, due to the long focal length, to the Eastern Veil Nebula last time. […]
Eastern Veil Nebula
Last night it was finally clear again, at least until 11 pm. Time enough to photograph the Eastern Veil Nebula in Cygnus for 3.5 hours, the remains of an approx. 8000 year old supernova. Recording data
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
M42 – Orion Nebula
A picture from last night. Unfortunately the season is already quite advanced, so the view of Orion is not so long in the evening. Therefore here first only 3500 seconds exposure time. Maybe I will manage to add a few more exposures. Recording parameters
Flame- and Horsehead-Nebula
Last night I photographed the Flame Nebula in the constellation Orion. Besides the Flame-Nebula and the Horsehead-Nebula, the bright star Alntiak is also well visible on the image. Recording data
