Description

A slightly different set of mosaic panes from my previous image - but very similar!

I'm amazed what could be captured during civil darkness. I was trying to polar align around 23:00-23:30 and could still see yellow in the sky to the W/NW! Eventually got enough stars to align and messed about with autofocus for a while trying out a new EAF project on the Samyang. Around 00:30 I set off a mosaic plan in Voyager - 3 panes, 15 minutes each. I let this run twice over each pane for a total of 1h 30m (30 minutes per pane).

This was shot at ~F2.4 with the Samyang (stopped down with rings at the front).

It really is exciting to hopefully see what will be possible later in the year with darker skies and some OIII (and maybe RGB) on images. Soon enough we'll be on the other side of summer with one eye on the darkening skies. For now at least it's time to enjoy the weather!

Captured with Voyager, stacked and calibrated in APP then processed in PixInsight.
