A faint galaxy that appears to be very close to the bright star Mircah.

Only luminance images were shot of this object.

I only shot a couple of long exposure images of this galaxy close to Stephen's Quintet. I think I'll have a go at this galaxy again.

L: 40 x 10 seconds in prime focus without any filters.

The center of the Andromeda Galaxy.

L: 50 x 5 seconds in prime focus without any filters. First light of the camera.

A spiral galaxy approximately 11 million light years away.

L: 133 x 10 seconds in prime focus without any filters (b/w 840k)
RGB: 15 x 20 seconds also in prime focus (spc900nc)

There was a lot of wind this night, so the raw frames were a bit blurry.

Also known as the "Ring Nebula". In this shot the nearby 'tiny' spiral galaxy IC 1296 is also visible.
