Wiu-Wiu Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 I just got back from a deepsky trip at the Rooisand farm in Namibia. By far the best sky I have ever seen! Absolutely NO lightpollution, good transparency, and when the wind played nicely, excellent seeing. We had 10 nights under these skies, with 10+ hours of astro darkness. Needless to say I have A LOT of data to process. The final object I shot, was this dark nebula. I processed it first, as all other dark nebulae I shot, are mosaic projects. And I need to sleep Only 3 hours, from 3 to 6 am. NO filter, straight from the camera. 36x300s, TS100Q, EQ8. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great image 👍 Thank you - I've always wanted to get under these kind of skies. I was not disappointed! Winter just started now, and they still had some spots free. I kid you not - this is a perfect place! You'll find more info on deespkysafaris.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juno16 Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Man, that sounds like AP paradise! I don’t think that I have ever seen that many stars. The dark nebulae is very clearly defined. Awesome! Beautiful image! Jim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
