I could see that image on the cover of a book. Fantastic composition

Just after midnight this morning a camera on my 'meteor rig' snapped this Perseid shooting past Cassiopeia. Canon 400d -EFS 18-55mm lens at f=18mm - ISO 1600. - All on a Star Adventurer mount. Star field - 20x30 sec stacked lights layered with frame containing Perseid.

Great image. What focal lengths are you using?

Really nice image.

Wow, that looks like something taken by the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter

What a fantastic image!

Lovely image!

Some untold stories of today's Chromosphere.

Like that a lot.

A captivating image.

Almost 3D, love it.

wow! thats impressive! what mount?

Lovely image! There's a wonderful intensity to the stars. Congratulations.

M81 looks especially good here.

First pic for me to see as new arrival. Nice welcome. lovely capture.

Satellites are generally lit for a short period as the sun's angle means it is reflected for a period and then the satellite goes back into the Earth's shadow. It could even be a piece of space junk. There's a lot of it up there.

Probably an Iridium satellite flare.

Very Much. This was supposed to be stars. But no chance. Still this might have worked.

A very nice and delicate stretching, like I like them.

A beauty.

A Globular Star Cluster further out than the Magellanic Clouds. Gaia estimate - at least 65,000 light years. Fancied having ago at this for some time. Thought the Robotic Telescope on Mount Teide gave me the best chance of resolving dimmer stars. Credit: COAST robotic telescope - telescope.org - Open University.

This is beautiful too. Such a beautiful texture and I love the bright filament of yellow light near the top right.

Nice one !

You have some very nice images using your Evostar 120 achromat, I normally image with an ED80 but also have an Evostar 120 achromat. I am considering using and it after seeing your work look forward to the new season. One question have you ever used a 0.85 focal reducer with the 120 when imaging

Very nicely done sir

They are lovely pictures Tim. It epitomises amateur Astronomy to me.

Tim, your sketches are superb and an inspiration! Looking through those on show makes me want to spend more time studying some brighter DSO's. Truly excellent! Mike

Super stuff, aethereal and delicate with a touch of fantasy.
