I'm learning like crazy then, because the failures are piling up. LOL But I'm having such a great time. Awesome video and great message. This isn't an easy hobby. But nothing worth doing is easy.
I know what you're saying. The first couple of images I made were pretty good. But now it's like I'm thinking too hard. LOL But I'm putting in the time to study and learn everything I can about it.
LOL My three biggest improvements were learning how to take good Flat/bias frames, staying on one target for a whole night or more and sitting threw multiple hours of how to "process in Pixinsight" videos. After that i realized I had been taking decent data but I just wasn't giving them the calibration frames and time they needed, bias frames are huge for my camera and are really easy to take. I still have a lot to learn but I'm happy where I am at right now. The next step for me is possibly a mono camera to replace my 10 year old OSC CCD cam. If you need any help let me know I might have some insight.
Great images, great seeing all your hard work paying off.. 👍
Thank you.
Great work ☺👍

Great collection of deep sky astrophotography,

Awesome video and great message. This isn't an easy hobby. But nothing worth doing is easy.
Thank you and Agreed, there was multiple small victories then one day it all just started to clicked. Even those first images I was blown away with.

@@MattsAstrophotography Someday those might be things u learn. LOL
how are you keeping your collimation on that big Newt ?
I use a combination of a cheshire, auto collimator and a laser collimator. With my f3.9 I always check and adjust the collimation after setting it up.
@@MattsAstrophotography yes , perfect. its a beast, i have 2 Newts.
The music, is too much
