Hi all,
"Room With A View"
View from the lookout up on top of Mt Buffalo National Park in Australia.
At the top of the image is the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) which are dwarf satellite galaxies of our own Milky Way. The LMC is home to the very large star forming region of the Tarantula Nebula (brighter greenish patch). The bright spot just to the right of the SMC is the second largest globular cluster in the night sky 47 Tucanae which contains millions of stars. In the lower section of the image to the left of the hut are Alpha and Beta Centauri, the closest star system to our own Sun. Above that in the Milky Way is the Southern Cross (Crux) Constellation and the dark Coal Sack Nebula. Further along the plane of the Milky Way is the Carina Nebula star forming region.
I love my southern hemisphere skies.
Couldn't resist a selfy under the stars at the same location.
Cheers
Greg

IC410
http://pbase.com/djrlx90
Copyright: David Rosenthal
IC410, commonly known as the Tadpoles, is a dusty and dense emission nebula in the constellation Auriga. I chose to shoot this using narrowmand filters for two reasons. Firstly my local light polllution is really horrid as I live only 20 miles NW of New York City and these filters do a great job of blcoking it out. Secondly, the Ha, OIII and SII filters really give you an interresting view into the chemical make-up of the nebula and let you see the ionization fronts clearly. It lends a 3D like appearance to thje object, almost like the Tadpolse are diving into a pool of water to escape the fire closing in on them.
Camera : SXVR-H18 with AstroDon Gen II E-Series filters

The image was shot with narrowband filters to highlight some of the physical processes going on here - i.e. I attempted to get an image with a little scientific value. I shot with three filters that record just the light that's emitted by ionized Hydrogen, ionized Sulfur and ionized Oxygen. I then mapped the data to specific colors. Everything in red in the image is caused by the Sulfur. Green is Hydrogen and blue is Oxygen - aka the Hubble Palette. It shows a bit of what's going on in there and just looks cool at the same time. The effort to construct this image involved combining 106 different images totalling just over 19 hours of telescope time.

Hello,
A rare phenomene of double transit of galilean moon's shadows hapened the 2013/01/23 and clouds just permits me to capture it.
Transparency was good but bad layers made variable conditions during the capture from south-west of France.

A 2% Waning Moon and Venus
The Moon, which was 2% of full and the Planet Venus were in close approach on the morning of January 10, 2013. I shot this pictures with my Canon EOS Rebel Xsi Digital Camera from my home in Neptune, New Jersey. I used my Canon 75-300mm lens set at 300mm. Camera was set on manual. Fstop was f/5.6. Exposure was for 1 sec. ISO was 800. Visually pleasing for the length of time it was visible to the naked eye.

The Double Cluster by
Dustin Scriven, on Flickr
Canon Rebel T3 (1100D) Unmodified
Exposure 68x60sec ISO 800 (1 hour and 8 minutes) though BackyardEOS
Imaged with an AT65EDQ f/6.5 at 420mm of focal length.
The scope rode on a Celestron CG-5, guided with an Orion Starshoot Autoguider in an Orion 50mm mini guidescope, ran in PhD, and dithered with BackyardEOS.
The image is fully calibrated in DeepSkyStacker with darks, flats, bias, and flat darks. Post processing was done in CS6.

NGC1333 is a reflection nebula with the bluish hues of starlight reflected by dust on the edge of a large star-forming molecular cloud in Perseus. It is a dusty region with contrasting emission in red jets and glowing gas from recently formed stars. Dark nebula Bernard 1 is south and Bernard 2 is north of NGC 1333 in this image (north in upper right).
This is a 4.9 hr LRGB image taken 12/9/12 at Mercey Hot Springs, CA.

Hello,
This is my first try at Hubble data. I looked for something not often processed.
I filled in the gaps with Photoshop’s content aware fill.
This was a fun little project!
This is part of a system known as Hickson Compact Group 7, consisting of four NGC galaxies.
Lenticular at upper right: NGC 0196
Blue spiral at upper middle: NGC 0197
Red spiral at left: NGC 0192
Spiral not in FOV is NGC 0201
Data set:
HST_10787_20_ACS_WFC_F435W(Blue)
HST_10787_20_ACS_WFC_F606W(Green)
HST_10787_20_ACS_WFC_F814W(Red)
