Dolphin Head

[Peter.M]

Hi Team,

Merry Christmas all! I have had a big 2024 with some big wins at work, and an unexpected win in the Bintel photo comp. https://bintel.com.au/zh/pages/best-overall-astro-image-2024

Here is my latest image, around 30 hours on the dolphins head, which just barely fits into my FOV!

That’s a wonderful shot with some spectacular detail. Well done!

A solid rendition. A win too!

Sounds like Santa had you on the "nice" list.

P.S. Bizarrely, when I click on the Bintel link, the web page language/font turns Chinese. Did Bintel move to Shenzen? :shrug:

Excellent result for an extremely difficult target
I can just squeeze the Dolphin in on my 8” Newt and 2600
Well done on the Bintel photo comp too !!
I won image of the month October 2019 with an image of NGC 253 using a 6” Newt and a Canon DSLR. Received a $50 store credit. Quite a surprise for a newbie back then.

Cheers
Martin
