Wasn't expecting to get out again but the opportunity arose so I took it!

Usual integration 18x300s ISO 800 for both images. Canon 450D/HEQ5PRO.

 

Really enjoying being out under the stars. Unfortunately I have chosen the wrong time of the year to return.

 

Later.

Great images Paul, the Owl has good def & colour. The Blackeye looks brill too! You must be pleased with these!

Stephen - I am easily pleased, believe me ;) But joking aside, any time spent under the stars is time well spent and always a pleasure.


 


I'm a man of routine but not OCD and my workflow of setting up, imaging and processing has evolved into a 'thing'. I can adapt to slightly different situations if required but prefer not to and trusting the 'system' :D


And thus my images, while ensuring certain parameters are met, tend to be 'snap shots' rather than a labour of love as usually seen in amateur astrophotographer's work.


 


I think we all grin when the first sub comes off. The more subs - the more grins :)


 


Thanks for looking/commenting.

Nice going, I like them both but of course M64 is the winner.
