Yesterday evening it was clear again. I was able to set up the small DWARF II once again and photograph two objects. Since the small telescope has some problems with darker objects, I pointed it at two old acquaintances this time. The M33 galaxy is one of the brighter and above all larger appearing […]

IC342
An image from yesterday evening. The image of the IC342 galaxy was taken with the DWARF II with an exposure time of 1 hour. IC 342 is a barred spiral galaxy with an active Hubble-type SAB(rs)cd galactic nucleus in the constellation of Giraffe in the northern starry sky. It is around 11 million light […]
M45 – Pleiades
Over 3 nights since November 7th I took 836 exposures of 15s each with the Dwarf II of the Pleiades. Here are the results. Not quite as great, but at least they are recognizable. I’m still hoping for the higher resolution of the Dwarf II, which should be available in the next few weeks. […]
Partial Lunar Eclipse
Yesterday evening at 22:14 the maximum of the partial lunar eclipse was to be observed. My picture from 22:18, when finally the clouds had some gaps, was taken freehand with the X-T5 and the 50-140mm. The weather was simply too bad for a timelapse series, so I didn’t even try.
M74 Galaxy
It was just an attempt… The focal length for the Messier 74 object is too small. In addition, the resolution of the Dwarf camera is quite poor. But, at least, the galaxy is visible. Shooting Data
M101 – Pinwheel Galaxy
Clear skies for a short time yesterday evening. With the Dwarf II, this is no problem, since long setup times are eliminated. At first I had thought that I could try my hand at M74, but there was still the house in the way at this time of year. So I set my sights on […]
M27 – Dumbbell Nebula
In the night from Tuesday to Wednesday it was wonderfully clear. For about 20 minutes a cloud field passed through, so that I could use only 30 of the originally taken 40 pictures. Nevertheless, I am actually quite satisfied. The focal length could be larger, ok. Shooting Data
M42 – Orion Nebula
Fell out of bed early this morning. An opportunity to photograph the Orion Nebula with the small Dwarf II. So far the results were sobering. This time it worked quite well. The image was stacked internally and then processed with Pixinsight, Photoshop and the Topaz tools. With the processing of the FITS files it […]
Double Cluster (NGC 869 and NGC 884)
M13 – Hercules Globular Cluster
Clear sky and darkness coming earlier and earlier, what more could you want…. Last night I photographed the Hercules Globular Cluster or Messier 13. Aufnahmedaten
