First light for the Samyang 135mm using the M42 adapter. This is an area I have never imaged before with the Sammy, the Gamma Cassiopeia region, including The Ghost of Cassiopeia nebula and the a tiny capture of The Pacman Nebula down at bottom right.

The Veil Complex
This one was hard work, had a lot of issues due to capturing on the two hottest days of the year so far.
This is a 4 pane mosaic of 6hr using the SW 80ED for the nebula and the Redcat 51 for RGB stars.

Another rework of this capture, this time I think I made better use of BB's Normalisation Tool to control the OIII and make the SHO Palette 'pop' a bit more. Happier with this one.

M31 The Andromeda Galaxy
Managed to grab an opportunistic hours worth of data on M31 at the weekend so I’ve added to the previous Redcat sessions and did a quick process. Came out better than I thought for a rushed job.

The Veil Nebula in Cygnus
Final version of 2 nights captures, one 3 hour session in RGB and an almost 2 hour session in (Hydrogen alpha and Oxygen III).
I stripped RGB stars, combined the BB & NB starless images at 75/25 % using Pixelmath and then remerged the RGB stars.

This is a composite image captured with two scopes. The stars were captured in last nights session with the Redcat 51.
The nebulosity was captured on 1st May with the Skywatcher 80ED.
This is a combined image of part of the Veil Nebula, including Witch’s Broom Nebula.

The Veil Nebula - Part 1
Last night’s 3 hour Broadband (RGB) capture of the Veil Nebula in Cygnus. No fancy Narrowband filters for this one, this just a straightforward capture with a little bit of light-pollution suppression to deal with the car park lights.

Finished playing! The fish was excellent, will definitely do this again. Haven’t tried doing Sushi/Sashimi seriously so this was a real learning curve.
It may look a bit “meh” but it tasted pretty good. Can recommend the fish from @thefishsocietyeu Will definitely do this again.

Had another stab at this one using a hybrid SHO palette. I quite like the warm feel.

Accidental Vegan tonight… Butternut Squash & Chickpea Curry with Atul Kochhar’s Brinjal Bhaji.
All fresh and from scratch, this turned out very tasty into the bargain.
