Hello all,
I've been doing astro for a couple of years and a member of the ASV for one. The Melbourne lockdowns made it rather difficult to get anywhere dark, unfortunately...
I managed to get up to the ASV's dark-sky site last July and captured some images that I feel are good enough to share. I still have a long way to go when it comes to capturing good subs, and further to travel with regards to doing all the post-processing.
These three were captured with my Nikon DSLR and either a 14mm or 90mm lens. Mount is a Star Adventurer 2.
We have the Galactic Core to the east (14mm), a chunk of the Galactic Core with the Cat's Paw nebula (90mm) and what I call Scorpio's Heart - Rho Ophiuchi (90mm).
Cheers,
V
(I've had to really shrink and compress the images, so my apologies if they don't look so good here.)
