This is UGC 477 -- a low surface brightness galaxy located 110 million LY away in the #constellation Pisces

Couple rainy days gave me an opportunity to process Heart and Soul Nebula. That's had been shot while ago in SHO. #astropic #astrophotography

Feature isn't yet out but we'll soon be able to stack Seestar mosaic images in Siril. This is a peek at what's coming our way:

My attempt to shoot Bubble Nebula, Crab Claw Nebula was a bonus. #astrophotography #astropic
Finally had a chance to process NGC 7822 aka Cosmic Question mark.

This could be last picture with halos around some stars, I think I finally solved my problem by adding UV/IR filter into the mix with cheap dual band filters from Askar C1 and C2, fingers crossed. This is Elephant Trunk Nebula SH2-131 in SHO, first time I was shooting this subject. #astrophotography #astropic
Finally had a chance to process few of my images. Here is entire Veil Nebula SH2-103 in SHO. #astrophotography #astropic
Colorado Bend State Park's main feature is Gorman Falls, quite magical place.
Here are results of previous years. Unrecognizable image with 50mm when I just started, 135mm last year with Canon camera. This year image at the beginning of this thread with ZWO533MC and 135mm. Looking forward to next year.
Finally had couple clear days and was able to test filters. Result SHO image of NGC7000 North America Nebula, my favorite object aka measurement of my progress with #astrophotography
Fun facts about Anchorage is that they have a lake at the airport, which serves as a runway for small planes on pontoons and you can see moose up-close in your neighbors backyard.
Unfortunately or fortunately we saw bears only in Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center, and then we've gone to see Kenai River with it's emerald water from glaciers and while there went on a 4.6 miles hike trail to see falls on Russian River.
Then we had another planned activity, from Palmer we drove side by sides off road through waters to Knik Glacier. Locals said they never saw water rising that fast and guides had to take different routes every day as their typical crossing spots are flooded.
While staying in Talkeetna we spent few days in Denali National park, home for highest peak in North America. 1/2
On our way to Talkeetna we stopped at Eagle River Nature Center. You could see Denali from downtown of Talkeetna. Over there we stayed on a beautiful private lake and used those kayaks at it's fullest.
