Deep Sky Objects using i-telescopes

These photos were taken using my subscription to i-telescopes.

A number of professional telescopes can be used over the internet.
The main observatories are Australia (Siding Spring, NSW),
USA (Mayhill, New Mexico & Sierra Nevada, California), plus Spain (Nerpio).

The instruments range from 90mm up to 700mm and are designed specifically for "deep-sky" objects,
rather than the moon & planets, which are far too bright to image successfully with these instruments.

Please note that these images are (more or less) "straight out of the telescope"
Commonly seen professional images are often enhanced via stacking lots of images together and by then using sophisticated software!


I will be putting more shots up as and when (I can afford to take them!).
