Orion

[Alan Clark]

My first attempt at astrophotography with my 150-500mm lens @150mm. 332 exposures of 3secs each, stacked in AstroPixelProcessor. The South of Orion, showing the belt, nebula and Rigel.

Very nice. may I ask where you took the photo to get such a clear sky?

 

[Alan Clark]

It was taken from my home in the outskirts of Liverpool, which does NOT have clear sky! The considerable light pollution was removed in AstroPixelProcessor and ON1.

Very nice Alan, I haven't tried any deep space photography yet, but you are inspiring me to have a go.

I had not seriously tried any astrophotography until around 18 months ago. If you wanted to try it there are numerous tutorials, and tips on Youtube, and other interweb locations. Your bird photo's are way beyond my current abilities Gary, I have very little doubt that if you give it a go you will quickly pick up astrophotography.
