Short trip to the Stintstedter See and actually lucky. A white-tailed eagle circled shortly over the area. The crow did not like this at all and after about 3 minutes the eagle let himself be driven away. A small flock of grey geese landed on the lake shortly afterwards.
Cuxhaven Sahlenburg
A few impressions from last night in Sahlenburg. There was almost no wind and accordingly the Mavic Mini was calm in the air. It was also possible to fly up to 100m without a message in the DJI-Fly software.
Cuxhaven Marina
After I finished in Duhnen I went to the marina. There are not many people around here on Sundays at this time of day, so it is not so obvious that there are hardly any tourists in Cuxhaven at the moment.
Cuxhaven Duhnen
Yesterday and today we visited Duhnen without the usual tourists. Frightening, when you compare how it normally looks like at Easter time. Hardly people on the streets or in the beach area.

NGC 7023 – Iris nebula
Actually I wanted to photograph the Rosette Nebula last night. But the nebula is a bit too big for the D5200 crop camera. Therefore I postponed it for now to try it again eventually this week with the D800. As an alternative, I have programmed the software for the Iris Nebula. I had already made […]
M42 – Orion nebula
Last night the conditions were superb for taking astrophotos again. Since it is still possible, due to the season, I wanted to photograph the M42 Orion nebula. After the problems with the equipment the night before, this time it worked perfectly. The recording data and astrometry evaluation.
