  • This nebula is not in the Milky Way Galaxy.
    I used my camera and telescope to photograph NGC 604 (and many other nebulae) in the Triangulum Galaxy.
    Full Post: astrobackyard.com/nebula-in-a...
    The final image includes 6 hours of total exposure time taken with the ZWO ASI2600MM Pro camera.
    Thank you for watching, and clear skies!

    NGC 604 looks really bright on the H-Alpha. I also have done some researches on it a few days ago, and it's a really beautiful nebula.
    Also, love the final result, and what a montage! :)

    Seeing nebulosity in my first good Andromeda picture earlier this year has had me thinking about this type of imaging. Very nice image.
    In the first frame of your montage you can really see how many of those regions are bubbles of gas!
    Outstanding

    Great image Trevor - lots of fantastic detail of the areas of nebulosity throughout the galaxy (loved the montage). If you visit the southern hemisphere, be sure to point your scope at the LMC and SMC - I am always in awe of the fact that we can image nebulae in another galaxy in such fine detail down here.

    I’ve been imaging M33 as well. Got almost 200 hours of exposure time so far (yes, 200 hours 😂). I don't want to brag, but I possibly discovered something new there! I am planning to finish this project soon, and share my observations!

    You inspired me to take a dive into astrophotography and I ended up purchasing the WO FLT132 after seeing your review on it. The Triangulum Galaxy was my first target with my setup. Looks like you got more Ha than I did. I'm curious to know what your exposure per frame was. Also what Ha filter you used. I used a ZWO Ha filter along with the ZWO LRGB on a ASI6200MM camera. My exposure time was 180s and captured 10 frames per filter. Thanks for sharing!

    Damn you really got me into something. I always loved to take pictures of Landscapes etc. Two months ago i found your Channel and what can i say. I now have everything at home to start astrophotography. Skyguider Pro, Modded 60D, Zentihstar60. Sadly i only had 2 hours of clear sky since i have everything together. I took my first shots of the andromeda galaxy the stacked picture is absolutely crap but im so adadicted now. Everyday i look at my weatherapp and check if i get another chance to go out. Really appreciate your work keep it up.

    Thats crazy, I just did the cheaters version of this last week! Unfortunately a bright moon made my attempt not so great, it was really cool to see Nebula in other another galaxy! My simple version consisted of a redcat 51, ASI533MC Pro, 180 minutes of broadband, and 120 minutes of dual narrowband (L-Ultimate).
    I am definitely going to revisit this when I have better conditions.
    Also funny to hear Ashley mention the flaming star nebula. I just did a flaming star / tadpole shot that might be my favorite image so far.

    I'd like to thank you for reigniting my interest for astrophotography. I currently can't afford a set up close to yours but I am starting with a Canon eos rebel xsi 450d and one I found on eBay is looking to be going for less than $100 but it's currently at just under $30 or so (I'm guessing that's right based on the currency here in the UK being GBP) and then obviously then saving up for the other stuff like a telescope and star tracker etc. I might go go for the Canon 6d but I'm not sure. Overall I'm looking to spend up to $1000 at the very most. I'm just not sure how to make money from it as I'm literally just waiting to start it for the first time because I love it so much but I'm just worried about it working out but I'm determined to make it work.

So taking a few seconds shots looks appealing . Any opinions ? Has anyone got one ? Thanks 🙂
