We had a couple of nice nights to get a shot of comet Lemmon. There were trees in the line of site so it was still a little bright when taking the shot. Ioptron 30pro ASI 533mc Canon 100mm f2.8 macro Lens 39 60 sec subs Pixinsight and Photoshop

Thanks Mike, it took me 2 1/2 years to get this one. It sure was nice to have a night of steady skies.

Thanks Jim, I'll keep trying to get the best shot I can. I'm hopiung to get some more deep sky images before the rains come.

Thanks Alan, I am taking advantage every chance I get.

I finally had a very good night for shooting the planets. I was ready to give up on my planetary imaging since moving to Oregon from florida over two years ago. This was taken with the Celestron 9.25 Edge with a 2.5 Powermate and the ASI 224 camera. I stacked 20% of 2000 frames in Autostakkert...

Thank You Mike

Thank you Jim!

Nice shot Mike. I see a horse with its legs and butt in the center and legs going down.

Thanks Jim! They now make them so you can use them for solar and deep sky. You wouldn't be sorry getting a solar scope.

Yes it is and chages quickly. When I first looked the big one on the top left was much brighter, by the time I set up for photography is changed in brightness.

The sun had much activity this late afternoon. This is taken with the Lunt60 and ASI1600mm camera. Best 80% of 600 frames.

Thanks! I probably should have taken some rgb shots also.

I thought this one was pretty interesting. Looks like a football or a kids drawing of Saturn. Celestron Edge 9.25 w/reducer 30-120 sec Ha and 30-120 sec OIII ASI 1600mm camera.

Thanks Jim, it's about the same size as the ring.
