Complete Image Processing Guide: https://sellfy.com/p/0zsyyq/ In this video, I share the most powerful image processing techniques I use in Adobe Photoshop. These are rather simple steps you can use on your next astrophotography processing session. Essentially, you need to process each color channel SEPERATELY because the signal, noise profile and star size will vary! Assessing and Editing RGB Color Photos channel by channel 2. Selective Noise Reduction on a per-channel basis 3. Selective Star Minimizing on a per-channel basis 4. Building and Adding a Luminance Layer for better highlights

I wanted to take long exposures and create perfect pictures for a long time. So many things need to happen right for that to happen. Finally after getting good balance, good guiding, good focus, good everything, here is my NGC 281 Pacman Nebula in SHO Hubble Palette. I hope you like it!

I saw some active prominences on the sun Thursday so it was time to pull out the DayStar Quark and see what I could capture. This animation was captured over 1 hour and 45 minute period and condensed down to 5.8 seconds to make it easy to seen the flames burning. It's then played in reverse.

In April, 2019 scientists shocked the world by publishing the first-ever image of a black hole! In this case- the supermassive black hole at the center of the elliptical galaxy M87, some 55 million light years away. In this talk, Ric Honey- electrical engineer, ham radio operator, and long-time amateur astronomer- discusses some of the techniques used to image the black hole of M87. Radio Astronomy gave birth to the image processing and interferometry techniques that enabled the imaging of the black hole. Ric introduces you to some fundamentals of astronomy in parts of the Electromagnetic Spectrum not visible to the human eye, and why observations at these other frequencies have enhanced our understanding of the Universe.

The Heart Nebula lies some 7500 light years away from Earth and is located in the Perseus Arm of the Milky Way in the constellation Cassiopeia. This is an emission nebula showing glowing ionized hydrogen gas and darker dust lanes. I've captured the Heart Nebula before, but this time I wanted to add it to my collection of 'Once and For All' images that I will be satisfied with for years to come - I hope. It's captured using Optolong narrowband filters and processed in the Hubble Palette.

Capturing impressive deep-sky astroimages is easier than ever with Celestron’s new Rowe-Ackermann Schmidt Astrograph, the perfect companion to today’s top DSLR or astronomical CCD cameras. This fast, wide-field f/2.2 system offers two huge advantages over traditional f/10 astroimaging: better apparent tracking and shorter exposures. That means you’ll create better-looking astroimages in a fraction of the time, even without the use of an autoguider.

This week I was joined by Dylan O'Donnell, an incredible astrophotographer and amateur astronomer from Australia.

Clip-in H-Alpha Filter for your DSLR The Astronomik 12nm H-alpha filter is a great way to collect isolated wavelengths of light in hydrogen-alpha. Detailed Review ▶ https://astrobackyard.com/dslr-ha-filter/ Astronomik 12nm Ha Filter (Canon) ▶ http://bit.ly/2nyKOQ7 This filter lets you capture astrophotography images under bright moonlight, and create captivating images with small stars in h-alpha. The image can later be added to existing full-color projects, or stand-alone is a dramatic deep-sky portrait in black and white. A modified DSLR camera (full spectrum modification) will allow even more h-alpha signal to reach the sensor, but a stock camera can also benefit from a hydrogen-alpha filter. In this video, I share a number of example images using a clip-in Hα filter on my Canon EOS Rebel T3i DSLR camera using camera lenses and telescopes.

I have lots of new astrophotography equipment to try out. At the end of the video, I build my calibration (Bias and Darks) library. Here is a rundown of everything in the video: Astrophotography camera: ZWO ASI1600MM PRO COOLED MONOCHROME CMOS CAMERA Focal reducer: Orion 8894 0.8x Focal Reducer for Refractor Telescopes Broadband and Narrowband filter set: Optolong 1.25" Filter Set with LRGB, H-Alpha, SII, and OIII AC to DC Power Converter: AstroAI AC to DC Converter, 10A 120W 110-220V to 12V Car Cigarette Lighter Socket Telescope cover: Orion 15206 Cloak Cover for Large Mounted Telescopes Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chucksastrophotography/

Not flexing, just an insane demo about how the new iMacs multicore cpus (and 16mb graphics card) just eats up the resources that PixInsight uses to process images. I also share the last couple of nights astrophotography work with the Celestron RASA 8 telescope and the M8 Lagoon nebula!

The Eagle Nebula (catalogued as Messier 16or M16, and as NGC 6611, and also known as the Star Queen Nebula and The Spire) is a young open cluster of stars in the constellation Serpens, discovered by Jean-Philippe de Chéseaux in 1745–46. Both the "Eagle" and the "Star Queen" refer to visual impressions of the dark silhouette near the center of the nebula, an area made famous as the "Pillars of Creation" imaged by the Hubble Space Telescope. In this presentation I hand focused my 254 mm Newtonian imaged LRGB at 25 x30 seconds exposures. The nebula contains several active star-forming gas and dust regions, including the aforementioned Pillars of Creation.

I tested out my new ZWO ASI294MC-Pro dedicated astronomy camera this last Saturday night from a Bortle 3 zone in the Sierra Mountains. I have to say this is a major improvement over my DSLR. To document my first light with this camera, and since I did not need my Canon T6i for imaging that night, I used my DSLR to create this Milky Way timelapse. The timelapse goes from 10 PM to 12:30 AM and is comprised of 400 individual 15 second exposures. The deep sky object I photographed with my new camera is the Whirlpool Galaxy (M51). I’ve included my image of the Whirlpool Galaxy at the end of the timelapse, plus added a little music to make it fun. Specs for image of M51 Lights: 50 frames at 180 seconds (2.5 hours), Unity Gain, cooled to 0 Degrees Celsius, Darks: 20, Flats: 20 Explore Scientific ED102 CF – FCD100, Orion Sirius EQ-G Mount, ASI294MC-Pro Camera Image Capture in Astrophotography Tool, Guiding Phd2, Stacked in Deep Sky Stacker, Post Processed in Adobe Lightroom Royalty Free Audio track: Art of Silence, provided by Uniq (YouTube)

What can you see this month? In the August sky, look for the "shooting stars" of the annual Perseid meteor shower for some stargazing delights, but be warned — the bright Moon will overwhelm the fainter meteors this year. Plus, the Moon's evening visits to Jupiter and Saturn. Additional information about topics covered in this episode of What's Up, along with still images from the video, and the video transcript, are available at https://go.nasa.gov/2KijnRU

Deep Sky Astrophotography using a DSLR camera and telescope. My Telescope: http://bit.ly/2nHhjMl Getting Started Guide: http://bit.ly/2ngb0z3 Image Processing Guide: https://sellfy.com/p/0zsyyq/ In this video, I'll walk you through the process of taking a picture of a nebula (Cocoon Nebula) from my backyard using a DSLR camera and a small telescope. Attaching a camera to a telescope, polar alignment, autoguiding, and running a sequence of images are some of the many topics covered in this video. I touch on the core aspects of deep-sky astrophotography and share my personal results using a DSLR camera and telescope in the backyard. Thank you all for taking the time to watch my videos!

In this video I photograph the Omega Nebula from the backyard... again. I've photographed this deep sky object several times, but I realized I didn't have the "reach" I needed. So, this time, I pointed the William Optics FLT 132 towards M17, and 925mm proved to be just enough. Due to a smokey sky, I was pushed out of my broadband imaging window into narrowband territory. I used the Optolong L-eNhance dual band pass filter this time, but I am very excited to the try the IDAS NGS1 next time!

Clarence Spencer teaches the 2019 Nightscaper Conference everything we ever wanted to know about Cameras modified for Astrophotography! Get better reds and color out of your nebulae and low-contrast deep sky objects! Bring out detail in your core without high ISO if that is what you love. Basically, get the MOST YOU CAN out of your Astrophotography camera by modding it. In fact, the crazy unexpected favorite modifcation Clarence offers at Spencer's Camera & Photo is the AA filter! At the conference we all thought even more about modifying our camera when we saw the change when the AA filter was removed! Go to 42:42 and tell me what you think! Get Spencer's Cameras help to modify your camera now! https://www.spencerscamera.com/ #MilkyWayPhotography #AstroMod #Astrophotography Are you a Milky Way Photographer?

In this video I will explain How to use Narrowband filters with Celestron RASA 11" or RASA 8" or RASA 36" or any Hyperstar system. These F/2 imaging systems need F/2 High Speed filters. I will talk about why to use these filters in this video.
