Popular Post +Derbyshire Dave Posted September 28, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 28, 2021 This was taken last night on my tracking Vixen Mount. I wanted to get beyond the usual shorter exposures which are limited by the 500 rule. So this is 12 x 3 minute exposures at ISO 1600. Stacked in sequator, then static foreground merged back in from a single shot. Sequator made a good job of reducing colour noise.

+Glafnazur Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 (edited) Nice Dave, I used to be able to see the Milky Way from my back garden. It was faint but I could make it out but with the ever increasing expansion of Derby it has gone from my skies now Edited September 28, 2021 by Glafnazur Typo +Derbyshire Dave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Derbyshire Dave Posted September 28, 2021 Author Share Posted September 28, 2021 Wherabouts in Derby are you Dave? Hope to meet you at a dark site soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Glafnazur Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 I'm at the bottom of Pastures Hill , near the Nuffield hospital. That would be great but unfortunately I don't drive so getting to a dark site is a bit of a problem for me. +Derbyshire Dave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob (binoviewer) lives in Daley Abbey, so maybe I could pick you up one day, and Rob could drop you back? +Glafnazur 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Glafnazur Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 Yes, I know Rob, we are both members of the Derby and District Astronomical society. We used to have some of our committee meetings at Rob's when we were both on the committee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
