The unmistakable Heart Nebula from the Perseus arm of the Milky Way. In what can only be described as an uncharacteristic display of patience, I collected data for this over 6 different nights at home to make a 2 panel stitch. It's roundabout 10 hours per panel after I discarded all of the dross. Askar FRA 300 with 585mc Pro and Optolong L Pro.

Heart nebula project underway. Have about 3 hours worth of data on it but would not consider that half way there. Will keep going with it. Imaged with Askar FRA300 petzval and a 585mc Pro camera and Optolong L Pro filter. All data from home.

A small Auroral display last night. I was shooting a timelapse, stepped out to check if it was all going OK and noticed the greens and reds so made a dash for the Black Castle. 2 years to the day since the crazy one which was weird. Canon EOS R5, RF 24-70 f/2.8.
