M13
M13. 90x300s or 12.5 hours total exposure to get those fainter stars at the periphery. Taken in 2022, using a Celestron 9.25 SCT, QHY268C and an Optolong L-Pro filter. by Dean Ashton
M101 – NGC5457
42x600s exposures of M101 captured on the 22 and 25 May, 2023, showing super nova 2023ixf. The image has been enhanced by addition of 95x600s exposures that I took in March 2020 of M101 using a Celestron Nightscape 10100 CCD camera but with the same scope and filter.
SN2023ixf was only taken from the 2023 exposures and cloned on to the full 137x600s image, at the linear phase of the processing so that the relative brightness of the supernova compared with foreground stars remains accurate. By Dean Ashton.
