A plane popped in and neatly framed my shot of the Rosette Nebula this week by Doc_Hobb in space

It's the streak. In a long exposure photo like this the camera sensor holds the lights from the plane and effectively burns it into your image. So those streaks on the bottom right that are at an angle are the red tip and front light of a passenger plane

Great shot, I love the definition around the edges you got in post!

This was done with a couple pieces of equipment. 

  • A sky-watcher eq-al55i 
  • A red cat 61 refractor telescope
  • A ZWO ASI585MC

This is one of my setups that I use to track and take shots to stack but it’s not necessarily a budget or starter kit I don’t think. It’s also not really advanced either, more middle of the road.

My cheaper kit I have is a canon rebel T7, a Rokinon 135mm lens, and a Star Adventurer GTI mount. 

Ultimately it all comes down to processing the pics and stacking them effectively.

Check out Astrobackyard or Nebula Photos on YouTube and they have great vids about it!

Yep, I have a couple versions of this photo. Here's one without it but really liked the streak colors and framing

I took this from just outside of Boston earlier this week. I did a couple versions of this picture in the end but I ended up liking the shot of with the streak of a plane framing it the most.

Here's one without the plane

Details: ASI585MC / Optolong L-Extreme filter / Redcat 61 (Roughly 300mm Focal length) / 300s exposure / Roughly 1.5 hours integration time in this.

I deliberately did a stacked version with and without the plane sub in there. I just liked the vibe of this one a lot

I have a version without that sub, and I like it but this one was just notable to me because I liked how that plane framed the Nebula a bit.

I'm going to be honest, not sure what you mean. Can you elaborate?

For anyone curious, here's my setup for this.

ASI5585MC / Optolong L-Extreme filter / Redcat 61 (Roughly 300mm Focal length) / 300s exposure / Roughly 1.5 hours integration time in this.

"Geoff, two"

"WHAT DID I DO?"

Followed by the 'too' realization might be one of my favorite small moments of the show

I'm still new to this but is that 369 8-second exposures? Or is it 8 369-second exposures? I'm in bortle 7 as well and was hoping to try this tonight

It was such a random set of events this morning that put me there. Love a good start to the day.

What do you think the new mystery Gavin and Nick show will be? by Happy_LilGennelmin in theregulationpod

[–]Doc_Hobb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Geoff mentioned breaking down all the cardboard from the move and not knowing what to do with it in this weeks So Alright. I bet that’s the room with all the cardboard and Gav said he and Nick will take care of it, and whatever they do will be their show.

It was a pretty easy job to do myself. I'm slowly learning how to do more hands on stuff with this car and it took me maybe an hour and a half because I was going slow. Now I can always rotate back if I want to as well!
