Astro Photography

Took this over the past week. This was my second attempt at this target and I am quite happy with the result and the fine detail captured. This is a narrowband image. Taking with a WO FTL 132 and an ASI6200MM using a WO ZS 61 as the guide scope.

Photo taken on a Canon t5i using a Sigma 150-600mm lens.

First try of shooting Andromeda. The picture is more of an art image as I added a tilt shift effect.

Anyone using the Sync for Lemmy app? I sure hope it starts supporting Kbin soon because it's hands down the best Fediverse app already. It has only been out a week.

Unfortunately, being in Kbin this Magazine is not very viewable on it yet. Something to do with Kbin doing things differently - any ideas on what that means?

Taken from the backyard. I love this target. I keep adding more integration time to it to bring out further details.

Hi all. I set this up quickly in frustration of reddit, and I still have not returned to the site sinces Spez's Elon-fuelled tirade.

While this little slice of celestial heaven is small, it is no issue to just let things run. However, I am a dad of 4, I run my own business and my wife is just starting up her own one - time is not a commodity I am in great supply of.

If anyone would like to join the mod team that has more time, and frankly, is willing to put in the work that I can't then please do let me know. When Sync for Lemmy opens its doors more people will likely start moving to the Fediverse. I believe that the Dev is looking to include Kbin also.

Sync is an absolutely beautiful app - think Apollo for Android - https://www.reddit.com/r/syncforlemmy

I think a couple of mods will be more than enough for now - no rush.
