Captured in narrowband hydrogen-alpha light, the Rosette Nebula reveals its intricate tendrils of gas and dust, illuminated by the intense radiation of young, massive stars nestled within its heart.

From the iconic silhouette of the equestrian motif to the nuanced interplay of light and shadow within its celestial surroundings, this image stands as a testament to the boundless wonders awaiting discovery in the unfathomable depths of space.

These images of Comet Pons-Brooks was captured on 03/10-3/12 2024, from 7:40 pm to9:10 pm.

Horsehead Nebula, also known as Barnard 33, is a dark nebula located in the constellation Orion. It sits within the emission nebula IC 434, which is illuminated by the nearby star Sigma Orionis. The distinctive shape of the Horsehead Nebula resembles that of a horse's head, hence its name.

NGC 1788, a day to night time-lapse a few other images from my week of solo camping in central Florida.

This composite image of M33, the Triangulum Galaxy, utilizes luminance (L), hydrogen alpha (Ha), and red, green, blue (RGB) filters to unravel the celestial tapestry of this spiral marvel

This composite image of the Andromeda Galaxy (M31) showcases the stunning beauty and intricate details of this neighboring spiral galaxy. Combining LRGB data with the added Hydrogen-Alpha (Ha) channel, this image provides a comprehensive view of M31, emphasizing the regions within the galaxy where hydrogen gas is actively emitting light at the specific Ha wavelength.

The Lion Nebula, also known as Sharpless 132 (Sh2-132), is a bright emission nebula located in the constellation Cepheus. It's a region of active star formation, characterized by the presence of young, hot stars that emit intense ultraviolet radiation. This radiation ionizes the surrounding hydrogen gas, causing it to glow in the characteristic red color of hydrogen-alpha emission.

This is a singe 60 second luminance exposure of the newly discovered comet Nishimura. I will try again to get a full color image of Nishimura before it leaves our solar system.

NGC 8307 is a magnificent spiral galaxy that is located about 130 million light-years away in the Hydra constellation.

Using narrowband Ha and OIII filters, I recently took an image of the Medusa Nebula, a stunning emission nebula located in the constellation Gemini.

Learn how I used the Bluexterminator plugin to reprocess old astro data of the M51 Galaxy, removing blurring caused by light pollution and atmospheric conditions and resulting in stunning images with crisp, clear details and vibrant colors.

NGC 2359, also known as Thor's Helmet Nebula, is a challenging object to capture in a detailed image, requiring multiple nights of data collection.

Discover the secrets of C/2022 E3 (ZTF), a newly discovered comet that puts on a stunning show in the night sky as it travels through the inner solar system.

IC 447 is a reflection nebula in Cassiopeia, illuminating insight into massive star formation and its impact on surrounding space.

The Pleiades are a group of more than 800 stars located about 410 light-years from Earth in the constellation Taurus.

An emission nebula in the constellation Cygnus, close to Deneb in the shape of the that resembles that of the continent of North America.
