Blue Horsehead Nebula and Milky Way
We're getting some good stargazing weather in Pearly.
For those who know me, I do have a soft spot for all animals, more specifically horses (Pearly Beach Horse Trails).
Hence took another stab at the Blue Horsehead Nebula in Scorpius, which was nicely placed near the zenith.
The final image is a stack of 80 x 60-second frames. While I was "up there" and close to Antares, stacked 50 x 60-second frames showing the nebulosity around the star as well as the globular cluster M4 and the tiny and compact NGC 6144. This region of sky has always fascinated me, photographically there is so much nebulosity to bring out.
Both images with an S30 Pro in EQ mode.
The last two images are 40-second frames of the Milky Way above the house with a Canon EOS R6m2.
