This is the most helpful guide I’ve found to interesting night sky objects. It gives me all the critical information, what, where, when and how big and a good pictures to inspire my next month’s imaging. I tend to use screen grabs to collect a few possible objects and then investigate these further at my leisure. As well as using it as a planning tool, it’s really relaxing to just watch play through! Many thanks for your work Martin.
Thank you. I have a question on the flaming skull nebula though, the picture and specs don’t seem to match with SH 68, was there a glitch in the matrix or am I missing something? ( kinda looked more like the lagoon but …)
Hi Carol. There seems to be some variation in naming going on here. NGC7822, Sh2-68 and the Rosette Nebula all seem to be referred to as the flaming skull nebula by various people!
@@jesuschrist2284 It does depend on your latitude, as well as the time of year. Definition of “Too low” is not precise, and some targets are only ever visible at low elevation. I provide the profile and info so that viewers can decide for themselves what to image. Clear Skies.
@@martinsastrophotography yeah but... Telescopius is telling me they reach highest point midnight december time. Ive checked my location in it and its correct. I didnt mean to sound like i was complaining as i really appreciate all you videos. They really have helped me a lot. Plus you show plenty of nice targets id never know about otherwise :)
@@jesuschrist2284 No worries. I decided to include targets that were ‘available’ (i.e. above ~10 degrees elevation) even when they were not at their highest in the sky. Then it’s up to the viewers to decide what to go for.

As always. Thank you for taking the time to put this together
Thanks for that Matt. It is a lot of work but now I’ve started I’m going to keep going until I have done all 12 months. Clear Skies!
Amazing as Usual. This guide has helped make life so much easier this year. Really enjoying the captures as well.

@@martinsastrophotography thank you. I didn’t think of the rosette as I certainly can’t see that in august…have another month to go 😏
Many of these targets are too low this time of year according to telescopius btw
