NGC 3372 in SHO (first light Sadr Observatory)
sadr.fr (french)
Copyright: David Néel @sadr Observatory full size : https://neel.ch/sadr_ngc3372_f.jpg
This is the first light of our new observatory in Chile (near Cerro Pancho and Cerro Tololo)
We have start a team (12 people) to build the project of an observatory in the southern hemisphere after building an observatory in France.
We make a trip from France to Chile at the end of February to finish and finally install our two years project. Sadr Observatory.
This is a 20 hour total stack (SHO) with a 71mm refractor. This is also a team effort to shoot and process.

M33 or the Triangulum Galaxy
This image was taken from Goldendale Washington in September 2016. Technical details: Imaged with a TMB 130ss at f/7 with an Atik 383+ Mono on an Atlas EQ6 mount. The exposure includes 5 hours of Luminance, and approximately 1 hour each of Red, Green, Blue and H-alpha. Large version here. Thanks for looking.

Messier 85
Copyright: Mark Hanson
Here is an image of Messier 85 (also known as M85 or NGC 4382 ) which is a lenticular galaxy, or elliptical galaxy, in the Coma Berenices constellation. It is 60 million light-years away, and it is estimated to be 125,000 light-years across.
M85 is extremely poor in neutral hydrogen and has a very complex outer structure with shells and ripples that are thought to have been caused by a merger with another galaxy that took place between 4 and 7 billion years ago. It's still interacting with the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 4394, and a small elliptical galaxy called MCG 3-32-38.
See image details and high resolution image here:

Thank you,

"In Fantasia"
In the photo you can see a very bright zodiacal light, the Orion Nebula and hydrogen nebulae, the California nebula, Pleiades and Hyades, the Soul and Heart nebulae and a very bright airglow. All this is over the mountain Kazbek. Caucasus, Georgia.
What are you ready to go for good photos? To take this picture, I walked about 7 hours on the mountains in winter, completely alone. But I was lucky that at an altitude of 3,200 meters I met a group of climbers who helped replenish the water supplies, because the water that I had half froze and was already running out. But after about 2 hours I again drank water with ice. -25 degrees is a wonderful temperature

The Observatory Hill
Credits: Adrien Mauduit
The Tenerife Observatory is showing its ESA telescopes aligned on a lava hill and under the stars. The beautiful milky way core is just rising there at around 2:30 when this picture was taken (April 13th 2018). Tenerife is home to some of the best quality skies in the world due to the altitude, but there is a lot of light pollution on the eastern and southern coast that you just can't avoid if you don't have a light pollution filter like on this picture. I really wanted to wait and combine the best elements of astronomy together: The human facet with the 'small' telescopes facing the immensity of the universe with the gigantic home galaxy rising in the background.
Panorama of 5 portrait panels tracked on the Vixen Polarie at half-speed to avoid blending and getting too much motion blur. Canon 6D Baader modded + Sigma 50mm f/1.4 Art, Matt Aust - startrails LP filter.

The Ghost of Jupiter
NGC 3242, is a planetary nebula located in the constellation Hydra. This is a multi-year project, with 58 hours of data. Very low surface brightness of background dust, and high surface brightness of the central object in the frame.
The planetary has what looks like waves of matter blown away. This was very strong in OIII, and not present in the Ha data. Many galaxies are spread throughout the background.
