A star filled background, red supernova remnant, pretty blue irregular shaped cluster adjacent a smaller compact orange star cluster.

My backyard shot of the spaghetti nebula SH2-240, an enormous but faint supernova remanent. It makes me think of the flying spaghetti monster :P.

The only thing better than a clear night for photon harvesting is a clear night and an after sunset rocket launch! Was a great way to start the night while waiting for it to get dark! Changed the camera on the #RedCat51 to get a wider field. Will post results shortly! #SoCal #Astrophotography
I only have a limited window to the Southeast, so set the #ASIAir plan to that region before the fog rolled in. Managed to get 15 three minute exposures of #M8 the "Lagoon" nebula with the #RedCat51 Hope to get more soon! #SoCal #Astrophotography
Running the same #ASIAirPro plan, I was able to get a lot more #RedCat51 #ASI585MCPro data on #NGC6888 and even some #NGC6992 before the fog closed in! Can't wait for the June gloom to go away. #SoCal #Astrophotography
Next up are the #RedCat51 #ASI585MCPro images. I also started on #M13 as it is in a good spot, then moved on to #M57 the "Ring" Nebula and got 4 images of #NGC6888 the "Crescent" Nebula before the fog. I am really excited to get more in the Cygnus area with this setup! #SoCal #Astrophotography
Got some imaging in last night! I ran the #LX200 with the ASI2600MCPro and multi band filter. Also got the first light on the new ASI585MCPro with the #RedCat51 and the duo band filter. Setup a plan but was foiled by the fog around midnight. I will post the results shortly! #SoCal #Astrophotography
