philjay Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 By heck its cold out there at the moment it must be the end of November and time for another POTM round up. Staying with the same format of picking out certain images as per previous months. Comets, Asteroids etc Only one submission this month in this category . Sunny Phil caught a meteor https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/13659-meteor-november-12th/ I quite like this image, its not deep or long exposure but it's got the essence of spontaneity which meteor bagging is all about. Deep Sky Corr blimey there's been a few submissions this month, we must have had a few clear nights J I like andyboy1970s first RGB image with Ha, for a starter this is good, also I like the FOV. Yes its always nice to see nebula in their entirety but detail can be just as interesting. No I didnt laugh Andy. https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/13642-first-ever-rgbha-image/ Sheila was at Kelling and gave us 2 processings of the Pacman. https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/13683-ngc281-2-ways-quick-process-from-kelling/ a nice comparison. plus a bright DSO from Sheila as she says not one of her normal targets https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/13687-first-lrgb-image-of-not-my-normal-fuzzies/ I like the colour Grahams image of the Thors Helmet Nebula https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/13676-thors-helmet/ Ibbos mosaic Sh205 with NGC1491 is nicely composed https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/13679-sh2-205-with-ngc1491/ Hats off to Joe for making a step into the dark art of astro imaging, his M45 shows far more than my early attempts https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/13704-the-pleiades-re-edited/ Allan the Plumbers Jelly fish is full of detail and nicely processed https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/13591-ic443-jellyfish-nebula-in-ha/ plus his Elephants Trunk in Hubble shows lots of depth https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/13705-elephants-trunk-nebula-ic1396-narrowband/ Lunar Perkil8r has been busy this month with his new 120 refractor giving us shots of different phases here's one from the 1st https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/13612-luna-928-waxing-gibous-01112017/ and another from later in the month https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/13729-luna-610-waxing-gibbous-27112017/ Brady gave us a gibbous moon showing loads of detail https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/13743-last-nights-moon/ Planetary Never seen Uranus imaged in Ha before but Graham bagged the planet with 4 moons here https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/13675-uranus-and-four-of-her-moons/ Solar This month its been all down to Ibbo and Graham for solar I like the prom detail on this one of Ibbos https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/13647-sol-10-11-2017/ also Graham got some nice prom detail here https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/13681-solar-from-this-morning-18112017/ Widefield I like the colours in Bino Viewers Venus and Jupiter conjunction https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/13655-venus-jupiter-conjunction-131117/ Rob has also got the famous stationary wind turbines in there J OK then, not an easy one at all this month because there are some stunners of images in there so apologies if yours hasnt been mentioned it's just that I would be here for a week doing the round up and you would be there for a week reading it if I included everyone. So down to the pick, credit to Sheila, Ibbo and Allan the Plumber for some excellent accomplished DSO images again. But POTM November 2017 I reckon goes to Joe for his image of the Pleiades https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/13704-the-pleiades-re-edited/ Why, because Joe is just starting out and learning the ropes and this is a good image, far better than I ever did when starting out. Well done and keep em coming folks Orion, red dwalf and Joe 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perkil8r Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Fair play, that's a very good image for a relative newcomer to the dark art. A very worthy winner. Congrats Joe, and all other notable mentions. Big thanks yet again Phil for another good roundup, there were a lot of images this month that's for sure. I would not have liked to try and judge it!
