Hi there would you mind sharing some examples of your work?
Been a busy year but getting back into it with the Elephants Trunk Nebula IC1396.

It's been a very busy year for me. Excited to have been part of the team to make this happen!
🚀 Launch Complex 3 is here! We’re ready to cut the ribbon on Neutron's new world-class test, launch, and landing facility on Wallops Island, Virginia.

Join us for the live broadcast of our opening reception around 10 a.m. EST: rocketlabcorp.com/live-stream/

Haven't had a ton of clear nights with good seeing lately but here's one project I've managed to do the last few months. The reflection nebulae VdB 14 & 15 in Camelopardalis.

Space is really cool! I use filters that isolate specific wavelengths of light emitted by the nebulae which are captured by my camera and produce a black and white image. Using three different filters lets me allow one to each red, green, and blue - creating the color image here.

My last wide field image for the time being is IC405 and IC410 in SHO (as well as quite a few other open star clusters and nebulae). Located ~1,500 and ~12,400 light-years away in the constellation Auriga, this is a young star forming region.

One of my favorite shots yet of Comet ATLAS by @jeanetteastro.bsky.social!

Unfortunately it looks like the comet may already be breaking apart and is only visible in the southern hemisphere.
More Comet ATLAS :)
Taken on the 21st Jan, 2025.
11x13sec subs, stacked. Canon 700D @ ISO1600, Canon Nifty 50 lens @ F2.8

Just saw your M33 post on astrobin earlier congrats on the discovery and welcome to Bluesky!
The extra work is paying off! Really easy to see the improvement in the extra integration time.
