Trifid And Lagoon Revisited

A reprocessing of the Trifid and Lagoon Nebulae from this shot in 2018. Astrophoto processing for amateurs has a come a long way in a mere five years. This was taken with my TeleVue 101is, Canon 60D at 30 second exposures, unguided, then processed in Siril.

Comet Leonard C/2021 A1

I caught my first photo of Comet Leonard C/2021 A1 on the full moon. Not ideal, however it was a start. Hopefully further into the waning moon the contrast will improve and hopefully a clearer and closer shot will be possible. This one was cropeed from a 16mm, f4, 5 second exposure on my trusty old Canon 60D.

Comet 21P B&W

Comet 21P this time in black and white from the RAW camera frames. I think I prefer this shot to the colour. The Canon 60D has a little too much noise in the sensor to make a crisp colour image of this comet.

Trifid Nebula

A closer crop of the Trifid Nebula. The dark dust lanes are clearly visible, including detail in columns of glowing gas.
