The Carina Nebula, I always used to just admire the Milky Way, but now knowing what's in that pretty little band that runs across our night skies, I have a much greater appreciation for it all.

This Nebula is 8500 Light Years away, yet those of us who know where the Southern cross is, are so close to seeing it just off to the side.

25 Hours of Imaging to get all this detail. This new hobby knows how to put your PC to the test when integrating all the images together and making sure every last star is perfectly aligned.

So my days of Wildlife and Landscape photography are officially over, well, they have been for many years now actually! I held onto the dream of one day starting up properly again, but between work, family, and just life in general, it was not meant to be.

So, all my camera gear has been sold and I have after many months of research and lots of head scratching, got into and are going to focus on what is Deep Space Object Imaging. Something you can do when the day is over and kids are asleep.

In Summary, bla bla bla, here is what you get when you take 450 B&W images and use voodoo magic Astro software... use an Equitorial Mount, and Narrowband filters, Fan cooled Astro Mono Cameras, essentially giving you auto-tracked, Black and White Images, which are then assigned a color channel based on their wavelength.

Probably the hardest edit of my life, this is a 6 image HDR trying to get the full dynamic range. I've been working on this one for about a week now and I think I am finally happy.

Dullstroom golfing weekend? was supposed to be anyways! Taken with my drone as I was too lazy to go back to my room to fetch my proper camera.
