philjay Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 A very mixed month weather wise, a month of two halves to coin a phrase, but it didnt stop some folks getting out there and imaging. Deep sky ibbo gave us some nice NB colour images https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/15202-sh2-171-sho/ the hubble pallet has really brought this one out. https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/15272-ngc1499-4-pane-mosaic/ Peter Shahs Iris nebula is stunning https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/15204-the-iris-in-rgb/ Alec gave us a good M45 https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/15209-first-time-on-m45-2018/ Chris P gave us NGC1333 in Perseus, plenty of dark stuff in there https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/15245-ngc1333-in-the-constellation-perseus/ Sheilas M1 shows loads of detail https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/15250-m1-longer-subs-for-me-guided/ to be followed by a detail packed shot from Kelling https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/15249-ic5070-new-kit-kelling/ and then NGC7000 from Cornwall https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/15277-ngc7000-from-cornwall/ 8472 chose a slighly different object to image, Kembles Cascade https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/15281-kembles-cascade/ Lunar A couple from Ibbo who "doesnt do the moon" https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/15257-luna-15-11-2018/ https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/15266-luna-17-11-2018-ir742/ Binoviewer gave us an 80% moon https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/15267-lunar-18-nov-80-sunlit/ Solar Despite us being in a solar minimum there are a few things going on with our nearest star as shown by Graham https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/15239-solar-from-today-11112018/ Ibbo https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/15248-sol-13-11-2018-ha/ https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/15258-sol-15-11-2018/ Widefield Sunnyphil gave us a wide shot of Perseus https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/15226-perseus-so-far/ The colours are coming through nicely in this shot of NGC225 from Bottletopburley https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/15268-ngc225-the-sailboat-⛵️-cluster/ As ever, loads of great images including those not mentioned above but in order to keep the round up a sensible length I have to leave some out. But keep taking the pictures and posting them folks. OK so which image stands out above all others for me this month? Gawd you dont make it easy do you J Its a close run thing this month between 3 folks. Peter Shahs Iris nebula https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/15204-the-iris-in-rgb/ Ibbos Sh2-171 https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/15202-sh2-171-sho/ and Sheilas IC5070 from Kelling https://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/15249-ic5070-new-kit-kelling/ Not an easy one as they all have the wow factor but I think the biggest wow goes to Peter Shahs Iris Nebula Peter Shah, Bottletopburly and andyboy1970 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweedledee Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Congratulations Peter. ? It's the best image I've seen of the Iris nebula. Never seen the surrounding dust come out so intensely. Lots of great images to choose from, cheers Phil. ? Peter Shah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
