Image through late January into early February 2024, this target was finished just in time for Valentines.

Imaged through May 2023 over several nights in between clouds and rain, this is my first attempt at imaging the Fighting dragons of Ara (NGC6188), also known as The Rim Nebula.
Imaged in the late part of April 2023, the Running Chicken Nubula (IC2944), or Lambda Centauri nebula, is an emission nebula associated with an open cluster.
I liked the wide field imaging of the Carina nebula so much that I just had to do a zoomed in version using the big boy scope – and it has exceeded all of my hopes !
I thought it was time to break out the wider field imaging gear and get the ED80 back into action on the CEM60 mount.

30/7/22 Yes, I know I have been a bit slack lately with very little imaging of the last 6 – 9 months but this has been compounded by a variety of issues with work, COVID, weather and just general life. But it has finally been time to get back into the imaging and as it is Milky Way season I figured it was finally time to capture M17 – The Swan.
