ASTROPHOTOGRAPHY

  • Photography - Captured with a Celestron C11 telescope equipped with a Starizona Hyperstar (effective focal length about 580mm @ F/2.0) and a Atik 490 EX color camera.
  • Photography - Photographed with a Celestron C11 telescope with a Starizona Hyperstar (effective focal length about 580mm @ F/2.0) and Atik 490 EX color camera.
  • Photography - Captured with a 11" Celestron C11 with Starizona Hyperstar. (Effective focal length of about 580mm @ f/2.0) and Atik 490 EX color camera.
  • Photography - Digital Manipulation. Solar eclipse - August 2017. Small white dot to the left of the eclipse is the star Regulus.
  • Captured from my observatory earlier this year. Celestron C11 SCT with Starizona HYPERSTAR, ATIK 490 EX color camera. Effective aperture about f2.0, focal length about 580mm. 12 - 5 minute subframes. Image artistically manipulated in Photoshop. The Rosette Nebula (also known as Caldwell 49) is a large, spherical (circular in appearance), H II region located near one end of a giant molecular cloud in the Monoceros region of the Milky Way Galaxy. The open cluster NGC 2244 (Caldwell 50) is closely associated with the nebulosity, the stars of the cluster having been formed from the nebula's matter. The cluster and nebula lie at a distance of some 5,000 light-years from Earth and measure roughly 50 light years in diameter. The radiation from the young stars excites the atoms in the nebula, causing them to emit radiation themselves producing the emission nebula we see. The mass of the nebula is estimated to be around 10,000 solar masses. (Thank you, Wikipedia.)

  • Photography - Digital Manipulation. Located in Sagittarius M20 (also called the Trifid Nebula) is an emission nebula and about 9000 light years distant. Multiple frames stacked in Maxim and tuned in PS.
  • ASTROPHOTOGRAPHY - Celestron C11, Starizona Hyperstar, about 700mm FL, about F/2.0. M13 - The Great Globular Cluster in Hercules is about 22,200 light years distant. Many consider it the finest globular cluster in the northern hemisphere.
  • Photography - Digital Manipulation. Celestron C11 with Starizona Hyperstar. About 750mm @ f/2.0. M16 (Messier 16) consista of a star cluster and many emission nebulae and dark nebulae; about 7000 light years away.
