NGC 2175, originally uploaded by ThinkingCamera.
In Orion. A star cluster surrounded by nebulosity (gas and dust). Although it is a little noisy, I was thrilled with this image. This is the kind of thing I was hoping to do when I started playing with astrophotography.
Leo triplet of Galaxies, originally uploaded by ThinkingCamera.
This is the famous and beautiful Leo triplet of Galaxies – Top is NGC 3628, and left to right in the bottom right hand corner are M66 and M65.
This is a genuinely interacting group of Galaxies about 35 million light years away.
20 x 40 second exposures. Atik 320e camera on a CPC800 telescope. Imaged from a suburban back garden in southern England. I was very pleased with this image – I think I am gradually getting the hang of astrophotography.
