This is the very center of the Heart Nebula, captured with our SCT 9.25. I love the intricate gasses, of the very active stellar nursery! πŸ“ΈπŸ”­ #astronomy #astrobackyard

The Sun was particularly active this week, so we did a time lapse. We witness in this video the eruption of plasma from a sunspot into a filament!

LBN 662 is a small section of the larger star cluster known as the Soul Nebula. It is an area of bright-rimmed globules, or cosmic pillars, sculpted by the stellar winds and intense ultraviolet radiation from hot, young stars. Captured over 7.5 hours. #astrophotography #astrobackyard #astronomy

Here is our 2025 rendition of the Cygnus Loop, supernova remnant. We took 97 600 second images using our Redcat51 and ZWOASI183mc camera, and stacked and processed them in Pixinsight & Photoshop. #astrophotography #astrosky #astrobackyard

Saying goodbye to the winter constellation. I created this image back in early March with a break in the clouds over Nipstone rock at the #stiperstones in south Shropshire.

#M81 and #M82 from the backyard. Total exposure is about 24hrs in LRGB+Ha. Was able to pull out some faint #IFN in the L channel but still could use some more time and darker skies.

Here is the Skull and Crossbones Nebula in SHO imaged over seven nights from my backyard. This nebula is very low on the horizon so I am quite happy with the results.
