I took these images using a 31-cm Newtonian at f/5.6 or f/4 and an ASI1600 camera with an off-axis guider and filter wheel.
Below: Omega Centauri (NGC5139), a globular cluster which is probably the remains of a small galaxy which was mostly robbed of its stars after passing too close to the Milky Way galaxy.
Below: IC2948 using a HOO palette
Below: The galaxy M83
Below: The Trifid Nebula
Below: The Orion Nebula M42
Below: The Orion Nebula in SHO palette
Below: IC2948, an emission nebula in Centaurus. Near the centre are several Bok globules, discovered by the astronomer A. David Thackeray (and now called Thackerays globules), although no star formation has been found within them.
Below: The Lagoon Nebula.
Below: NGC3576, an emission nebula region in Carina.
Below: The star cluster NGC6193 and the emission nebula NGC6188 in Ara.
Below: NGC6559, a complex of emission, reflection and dark nebulae.
Below: This is IC418, a planetary nebula in Lepus. I used lucky imaging to capture 9601 frames of 100 ms exposure using a 31-cm Newtonian and a 3X barlow with an ASI224MC-cool camera. I stacked these (including 1.5X drizzle) using AutoStakkert.
Below: IC5148, a planetary nebula in Grus
Below: NGC2899, a planetary nebula
Below: NGC6072, a planetary nebula.
Below: NGC3324, a large emission nebula near the etc Carina nebula.
Below: NGC2261, Hubble’s variable nebula
Below: M17, the Omega Nebula
