Photo of Andromeda Galaxy M31 against a dark night sky

Two lovely clear and moonless nights this week so time to try and remember how on earth to do all this again. Just under 4 hours on M31 Andromeda, ASI294MC Pro, Canon 300mm lens.

🐍 MEDUSA - Here's Looking At You, Kid 🪦

Before Medusa was monstrous, she was beautiful. And before she was beautiful, she was powerful. She is a riddle that defies solution, from a time before the shape of things was settled.

Let’s continue with the fresh new Greenland series 🙂.
Pastel late sunset with mountain style iceberg in background & our beautiful red sails 😌.

Hi everyone! First still image from Greenland photo tours 😉. Hope you enjoy 🙂🧊⛵️

When art from nature blends perfectly with man made creation…

One of my first photos of Kyrgyzstan 7 years ago.

@niallharbison.bsky.social do you think the dogs 'remember' you after such a time or not? Or are they just happy to be petted anyway?!

Couldn’t agree more …

Mystical run… Beautiful horses of camargue in the marshes.
This one is from last year btw.

How many horses do you see here? There’s actually 5, one being very well hidden… Look for the belly 😆

Cranfield ? Lovely.

I am finding this beautiful wild garlic popping up in lawns around my neighborhood. It's tiny but makes a wonderful cut flower.

Lovely- and now I’m thinking I could have aligned a bit better to get the tadpoles in fully! Hindsight is wonderful, and a good excuse to try again some night 😁

A square crop of a 3 hour exposure of the Flaming Star Nebula, taken on an ASI294 MC Pro camera.

Got another clear moonless night on Friday so had another play with the ASI294 MC Pro. Loving this step up from a modded DSLR, wishing I'd done this months ago. 3 hrs with a Canon 300m L lens, unguided, 90 sec subs, Flaming Star Nebula. Processed in AffinityPhoto.

1.5 hours exposure of M42, the Great Orion Nebula.

First play over the weekend with a dedicated OSC camera and my mind was blown. Seeing wasn’t particularly good but this is ~1.5hrs total (90 sec subs) and I can’t believe how clear it came out. Shot on a Canon 300m L lens. Can’t wait for more clear sky!

It looked like Flannery had dropped back in anticipation but there you go 🤷🏼‍♂️.

Fortress Ravenhill is now a sandcastle and the tide just came in. Awful game.

So the scale only goes from 4 - 6 then?

First half was fairly respectable, but getting hard to watch now sadly. Challenge Cup is maybe where we belong. #LEIVULS

Thank you kindly.. think I’m pushing the limits of my kit tbh without investing but clear moonless skies are so rare, I’d love to try this again some clear dark night.

Broadband exposure of just over 3 hours of the Monkeyhead Nebula.

Just over 3 hours on this, this week, with an 85% moon has been challenging. The Monkeyhead Nebula taken on an astromodded Canon 7D, 300mm + 1.4x converter.

Better safe than sorry....

Ah that just sums up supporting Ulster … 🙄 #SUFTUM

Ah that was quick?! - and Vielen Dank 😁

Very much an amateur astrophotographer but always looking to improve ! Based in N. Ireland, with ridiculous amounts of cloud cover, clear spells are few and far between so only happy to share what I can.
