I captured data for this image in February this year, but I only recently got a chance to process it. The Rosette Nebula is a stunning HII region that primarily consists of ionized hydrogen. Located in the constellation Monoceros, the Rosette Nebula spans about 130...
In late summer of 2023, over the span of a week, I dedicated my time to capture the Cygnus Wall, a prominent feature within the North America Nebula (NGC 7000). This nebula, located in the constellation Cygnus, lies about 2,590 light-years away from Earth. Dates...
Above is a picture of the Iris Nebula (NGC 7023) that I captured during just two hours of imaging time in August 2023. The Iris Nebula, also known as NGC 7023, is located roughly 1,300 light-years away in the constellation Cepheus. This reflection nebula shimmers like...
I was fortunate enough to witness and capture the fascinating “ring of fire” of the annular solar eclipse from Fair Oaks Ranch, TX, on October 14, 2023. What is an Annular Solar Eclipse? Solar eclipses occur when the Moon passes in front of the Sun as...
My first ever picture of IC 410 nebula also known as The Tadpoles Nebula. I was capturing this target over the course of 10 nights in December 2023. IC 410 is an emission nebula located approximately 10,000 light years away in the constellation Auriga. At the center...
In this post I want to share with you a picture of The Fossil Footprint Nebula that I captured during a course of 10 nights in November 2023. The Fossil Footprint Nebula is a non official name for the nebula, and it is also known as NGC 1491 or Sh 2-206. In addition...
While working on my deep image of nebulae in the M33 galaxy, I spent a few hours imaging the famous Andromeda Galaxy. The image above is the result of combining just 84 frames of 300-second exposures each, resulting in 7 hours of total exposure time. The Andromeda...
