Simple & Easy Tips and tricks to edit a Milky Way Timelapse using Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Premiere. Recently we went out with a Ukrainian TV Show to Goblin Valley State Park to capture a Milky Way Time-Lapse over the dark skies of Southern Utah. If you have access to Adobe Premiere you have a really easy job ahead of yourself to create a time-lapse movie with your Milky Way Photography. Edit your images, save them out with filenames that end with a sequence of numbers and then import the images as an image sequence into Adobe Premiere and you will have no work at all to render out a video of your awesome Milky Way Time-Lapse!

An open discussion on processing techniques.

This is the first deep sky object I've completed all month - such bad weather. I'm going to have to drop my gain in the future so that I can take longer exposures and fewer raw images, capturing and stacking 1,052 frames (30 seconds each) for Luminance is a time consuming endeavor.

My ZWO ASI183MM camera will be used specifically for the moon and sun. I wanted a dedicated camera for these objects so I can leave my ASI1600MM camera dedicated and uninterrupted for deep sky astrophotography. Here are the specs on the ASI183MM camera: Model Number ASI183MM Color or Monochrome Camera? Monochrome Imaging Camera Series ZWO ASI183 Camera Sensor Manufacturer Sony Sensor Model IMX183CLK-J Sensor Type CMOS Pixel Size (µm) 2.4 Pixel Array (pixels) 5496 x 3672 Camera Cooling Natural Convection Bit Depth 12-Bit Minimum Exposure 32 µs Maximum Exposure 2000 s Computer Interface USB 3.0 Camera Dimensions 62mm x 36mm Camera Weight (lb.) 0.26

The last two galaxies I've captured are M81 and M82. They are usually captured together in a single frame, but I thought it best to just go after them one at a time since I am using my larger refractor telescope. I struggled with the colors on M81 and kept starting over from scratch. I cropped to bring the galaxy closer.

I started on M82 nearly a month ago. It took a while to capture the 27 hours that I wanted. I went with 18 hours of Ha data to make sure I could get that starburst center that the Cigar galaxy is famous for. It was also my first attempt at processing an HaLRGB image in PixInsight. Here is more info: Target: Cigar Galaxy (M82) Imaging Telescope: Explore Scientific 127mm ED Refractor (952 focal length) Focuser: MoonLite 2.5" Focuser with Motor Auto-Focus Field Flattener: HoTech 2" SCA Field Flattener Mount: Celestron CGX Polar Alignment: QHYCCD PoleMaster Imaging Camera: ZWO ASI1600MM-Cool Frames: Astronomik Blue: 60x60" Astronomik CLS: 726x30" Astronomik Green: 60x60" Astronomik Ha: 363x180" Astronomik Red: 31x120" Integration: 27.2 hours Gain: 139, Offset: 21 Guide scope: Orion ST80 Guide Camera: Lodestar X2 Guide Software: PHD2 Calibration Frames: Darks: 50, Bias: 50, Flats: 50 Capture software: Sequence Generator Pro (SGP) Stacking software: PixInsight Post Processing: PixInsight, PhotoShop Dew Shield, Dew Heater Strip Astrobin: https://astrob.in/337568/0/

This nebula (NGC 2175) seems to be strong in both Ha and OIII, so I attempted to process it with just 7 hours of data. My original plan was to do the Hubble Palette on it, but I can't seem to get enough clear skies. Now the Monkey Head is already at the meridian as soon as it gets dark, so I may have to wait until next year to capture SII data (unless I get some clear skies soon). In this video I also go through multiple examples of how to use PixInsight's SHO-AIP Script for narrowband processing.

I had already captured the Rosette nebula with my wide field telescope, so I thought I'd give it a go with my larger refractor. I used the Hubble Palette with the Ha, OIII, and SII narrowband filters. The colors came out different than my first time around and I rotated it with a vertical orientation just out of curiosity and ended up liking it this way. Here is more info: Target: Rosette Nebula (NGC 2244) Imaging Telescope: Explore Scientific 127mm ED Refractor (952 focal length) Focuser: MoonLite 2.5" Focuser with Motor Auto-Focus Field Flattener: HoTech 2" SCA Field Flattener Mount: Celestron CGX Polar Alignment: QHYCCD PoleMaster Imaging Camera: ZWO ASI1600MM-Cool Frames: Astronomik Ha: 89x180" Astronomik OIII: 120x120" Astronimik SII: 80x180" Integration: 12.4 hours Gain: 139, Offset: 21 Guide scope: Orion ST80 Guide Camera: Lodestar X2 Guide Software: PHD2 Calibration Frames: Darks: 50, Bias: 50, Flats: 50 Capture software: Sequence Generator Pro (SGP) Stacking software: PixInsight Post Processing: PixInsight, PhotoShop Dew Shield, Dew Heater Strip Astrobin: https://astrob.in/336108/0/

An open discussion on your imaging system and what changes you would make.

Open discussion on the benefits of driving to darker skies to image.

I am still collecting as much Ha on deep sky objects as I can while I wait for light pollution levels to come down. Can't wait to try broadband again. I found that 1 minute exposures in Ha at Gain 139 / Offset 21 seems to be the sweet spot for capturing and taming the Orion Nebula without blowing out the core. The open cluster in the core (known as the Trapezium) is revealed and we can see the primary four stars. I also cover how to perform a manual HistogramTransformation as well as using CloneStamp to modify a RangeMask.

It's time for some DSLR astrophotography in the backyard. In this video I photograph the beautiful Rosette Nebula in Monoceros with my Camera and Telescope. The Rosette Nebula contains a striking open star cluster in the center, catalogued NGC 2244. This nebula is a large cloud of interstellar gas that graces our northern hemisphere skies every winter. I'll use my William Optics FLT 132 Refractor telescope with a Canon DSLR camera to capture some long exposure images on an Equatorial Mount. The images will then be stacked together and processed in Adobe Photoshop. Learn how I produce these images at: https://astrobackyard.com More Information about the Rosette Nebula: https://astrobackyard.com/caldwell-49-rosette-nebula/

I wanted to get a more detailed view of the Jellyfish's thick area - something that might look very interesting on a metal print, so I re-captured it with my bigger refractor and still cropped around the edges even more. Bad weather prevented me from capturing as much data as I wanted and the forecast does not look promising, so I went ahead and worked with what I had. Here is more info: Target: Jellyfish Nebula (IC 443) in SHO Imaging Telescope: Explore Scientific 127mm ED Refractor (952 focal length) Focuser: MoonLite 2.5" Focuser with Motor Auto-Focus Field Flattener: HoTech 2" SCA Field Flattener Mount: Celestron CGX Polar Alignment: QHYCCD PoleMaster Imaging Camera: ZWO ASI1600MM-Cool Frames: Astronomik Ha: 140x180" (Green Channel) Astronomik OIII: 65x120" (Blue Channel) Astronimik SII: 101x180" (Red Channel) Integration: 14.2 hours Gain: 139, Offset: 21 Guide scope: Orion ST80 Guide Camera: Lodestar X2 Guide Software: PHD2 Calibration Frames: Darks: 50, Bias: 50, Flats: 50 Capture software: Sequence Generator Pro (SGP) Stacking software: PixInsight Post Processing: PixInsight, PhotoShop Dew Shield, Dew Heater Strip Astrobin: http://astrob.in/333481/B/

How is visual astronomy different then astrophotography? Did you start with visual? Why do you prefer astrophotography?

Jones-Emberson 1 (PK 164+31.1) is considered a larger planetary nebula, but with a low surface brightness - as I would find out. This deep sky objects was way more faint and difficult to process than I thought it was going to be. I'm moving on and not looking back.

I tried a different approach to the Flaming Star nebula than my previous version. My original plan was to process this deep sky target using the Hubble Palette, but since OIII was barely showing up for this object, I decided to toss it out and only go with Ha and SII. I put Ha in the Red channel at 100%, and SII in the Green and Blue channels at 100%. I think this is a kinder, gentler Flaming Star than my first one. I used the SHO-AIP script in PixInsight to combine the data. Here is more info: Target: Flaming Star Nebula (IC 405) Imaging Telescope: Orion ED80T CF (480 focal length) Reducer: Orion .8 Mount: Celestron CGX Polar Alignment: QHYCCD PoleMaster Imaging Camera: ZWO ASI1600MM-Cool Astronomik Ha: 101x180" Astronimik SII: 101x180" Integration: 10.1 hours Gain: 139, Offset: 21 Guide scope: Orion ST80 Guide Camera: Lodestar X2 Guide Software: PHD2 Calibration Frames: Darks: 50, Bias: 50, Flats: 50 Capture software: Sequence Generator Pro (SGP) Stacking software: PixInsight Post Processing: PixInsight, PhotoShop Dew Shield, Dew Heater Strip Astrobin: http://astrob.in/328906/0/

What did Santa bring you this year?

Here is the Zenithstar ZS61 setup with a field flattener, which adds enough back focus for the DSLR to achieve focus, and flattens out any distorions to the edge of the field of view.

As long as there is snow on the ground amplifying my Red Zone light pollution to an even higher degree, I'm sticking with narrowband filters. I went with the Hubble Palette and my wide field telescope for the California Nebula. Here is more info: Target: California Nebula (NGC 1499) Imaging Telescope: Orion ED80T CF (480 focal length) Reducer: Orion .8 Mount: Celestron CGX Polar Alignment: QHYCCD PoleMaster Imaging Camera: ZWO ASI1600MM-Cool Astronomik Ha: 131x180" Astronomik OIII: 90x120" Astronimik SII: 80x180" Integration: 13.6 hours Gain: 139, Offset: 21 Guide scope: Orion ST80 Guide Camera: Lodestar X2 Guide Software: PHD2 Calibration Frames: Darks: 50, Bias: 50, Flats: 50 Capture software: Sequence Generator Pro (SGP) Stacking software: PixInsight Post Processing: PixInsight, PhotoShop Dew Shield, Dew Heater Strip Astrobin: http://astrob.in/328496/C/ Music: Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution license (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/) Source: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1100189 Artist: http://incompetech.com/

With my main targets not in view, I decided to see if I could image the moon with my ZWO ASI1600MM-cool. I used an Ha filter with an exposure duration of 0.01 seconds and a gain/offset of 139/21. The telescope used was my Orion ED80T CF refractor with a .8 reducer.

At 2 degrees Fahrenheit, this is definitely the coldest I've ever run my astrophotography gear in. Is there a point where it's too cold?

Christmas came early at the Jones residence. The Altair Hypercam 183M (Mono) is a dedicated astronomy camera with a 20MP CMOS Sensor. Altair Hypercam 183M: http://www.ontariotelescope.com/product.asp?itemid=1385&Affid=2 This is a brand new deep sky imaging camera that I will connect to my telescope (as soon as the skies clear!) A monochrome camera will outperform a color sensor in terms of sensitivity, which is especially important when imaging in narrowband. To create a full color (or false color) image, I will need to shoot through multiple filters to produce a final image. Merry Christmas!

2017 was a very productive year in astrophotography for me. This video seems to go on forever despite leaving off a lot of photos I felt were not very good. I don't expect anyone to make it through to the end of this video, it might put you to sleep before then.

In this video, I try out the William Optics FLT 132 telescope for some deep sky astrophotography in the backyard. It was an extremely cold night in Canada as the temperature dropped to -17C! I used my Canon DSLR camera to capture the glorious Orion Nebula through this giant refractor. Be sure to stick around for the image at the end!

Join me for a discussions and presentation on how I work around and deal with Light Pollution in my Milky Way Photography. Sometimes we just don't have the option of getting away from the Light Pollution issue areas and we have to work in post to fix our light pollution. The way you handle it will vary depending on the color of the lights and strength. But if at all possible, avoid Light Pollution altogether by working around it using DarkSiteFinder.com.
