Various astronomy pictures I’ve taken with with my telescope. I’m going to move to a more chronological list of pictures in the astrophotographical blog but I’ll try to link to the best of them from here.
Galaxies: M31 M33 M45 M51 M66 M81 M101
Clusters: None yet
I use a Sky-Watcher Explorer 130P-DS OTA. Some of the older pictures were taken when it was mounted on an unguided Sky-Watcher EQ3 PRO Go-To astronomy mount. Nowadays I use an EQ6-R Sky-Watcher mount.

I used an unmodded Canon 550D to take the earlier pictures. Then I acquired a ZWO ASI 2600MC-PRO which I now mostly use. Planetary camera and guide camera is a ZWO ASI 120MC-S. The whole thing is controlled by astroberry.

Stacking and post processing is in Siril and StarTools. Unless otherwise noted I used ISO 800 with the Canon 550D and gain 100 offset 24 with the ASI 2600.
