Hellows felllows,
a short sign of life from me, since i didn't come to read and post much in the last weeks.
Currently i'm recovering from a cold at home, so i found time to backread WO a little.
Paused DCA for a month, because one of my fukcing car's brakes broke and i didn't want to drain the holiday reserve money
My boss was also calling me up again to get some electronics work finshed for her prime customers, and that's what i do all day since, besides managing the kids in their holidays... and trying to catch unclouded nights to stuff more deep sky data onto my harddrive(s).
That said, here is a mediocre capture of NGC 6960, the "Veil Nebula", with occasional thin, high clouds and unsteady guiding, which i still try to resolve, giving me slightly odd star shapes and over-saturation-like effects in post production. AFAIR these have been three and a half hours of data capturing, so the nebulous structures came out strong and well defined.
#HODL
EDIT: Just received my "Skyglow" Filter, which allows me to capture Deep Sky objects without much loss of signal in nights with moons up to 70-80% full, which should give me quite some advantage over the relatively many cloudy nights at new moon. Yet, 2023's summer was quite unpleasant in regards of astrophotographer's demands in my area.
