  1. Thanks Geordie85! Just checked now and I do have subs with high cloud. Will have another go with the cleaner data.
  2. Managed to get out last night, first of 2022, conditions were not ideal because of all the moisture around. I can't be picky though, considering we only get about 10 windless clear nights in the valleys in winter. This picture is the highlight of the night consisting of NGC 2024 - Flame Nebula and Barnard 33 - Horse Head Nebula in the constellation Orion. 10min exposures stacked for a total of 3hrs 20mins integration time. No flats or darks, only bias frames used. I was trying out 10min exposures.

  5. Thanks for the link, I will give it ago when I get some clear skies, forecast looking awful for the next week.

    Really nice affect on the dust lanes, great image!
  7. Skywatcher 100Ed 2.5 powermate, Zwo 224MC. Mars Gain= 31 Exposure=0.015737 Uranus Gain=258 Exposure=0.058589 Thursday night here had some really good seeing so I decided to try some imaging again. The night was nearly a disaster when noticed my dew heater cables were unplugged when switching from Saturn to Mars! and the lens was full of dew. Explains why I could not get decent focus on Saturn 🙂 Once everything was dry again I began. I managed to image Olympus Mons on Mars this time so really happy. I then switched over to Uranus and after about 10 minutes of switching between eyepiece and camera I was amazed to see a bluish out of focus blob on the screen, tried focusing best I could and this is the result. I just need Neptune now for my set, can't wait! Uranus at 200%, Mars at 100%

  9. Hehe, I am going to need a longer selfie stick 🙂
  10. CraigT82 has a Mars post and I can see clouds in his data, so I would say they are clouds.
  11. With the addition of Mars my quest to image all the planets in the Solar system and our Moon took a step forward. All the images were taken with the ASI 224MC apart from the 2012 Jupiter which was captured using a SPC 900. Uranus is going to be my next target. Also I am claiming the Mercury transit as my Mercury for now 🙂
  12. I joined all the separate AVI clips into one large video using pipp. I then auto aligned the RGB in RegiStax and stacked the best 80%. Slight sharpen and warming filter in PS. I prefer the following version. 150% and 100%
  13. I much prefer the first image.
  14. Managed to get a practice run in on Thursday night ready for the 13th. My first Mars so really happy. Used sharpcap, 2000 frames. Gain 33, Exposure 21ms.
  15. Great first attempt. I can see some drift in the stars, maybe try some deconvolution to adjust them?
