My favorite image from last imaging season of 2010.

This closeup image of NGC 7000 is my opening image of the Autumn season 2010.

All my images from the Autumn/Summer season 2010



The year 2010 is about to end. 

Here is a collection from all of my astronomical images from Summer/Autumn season 2010.
I can't do any imaging from my observatory during Summer months, due the high latitude, 65N.
I was lucky enough to have an access to a Northern Galactic groups Australian remote telescope for few months this year.

Happy new year to all readers and followers!





The whole collection can be seen in my portfolio, with the technical details:








NGC7000 & the Pelican nebula as a Stereo Pair 3D



I have made animated 3D versions from most of the stereo pairs, they can be found here:


Parallel vision 3D


Cross vision 3D

Other 3D-formats:



NOTE! This is a personal vision about forms and shapes, based on some known facts and an artistic impression.

Sh2-171 reprocessed




I did reprocessed this nebula since my skills are much better now, than two years ago.
3D-studies from this object can be found from previous posts.


Image is in HST-palette, (HST=Hubble Space Telescope)
from the emission of ionized elements, R=Sulfur, G=Hydrogen and B=Oxygen.




Natural color composition from the emission of ionized elements, R=80%Hydrogen+20%Sulfur, G=100%Oxygen and B=85%Oxygen+15%Hydrogen to compensate otherwise missing H-beta emission. This composition is very close to a visual spectrum.
