Because the UK sky gods continue to smile upon me, here’s some more #SeestarS50 #Astrophotography
This is NGC 3631, a ‘small’ spiral galaxy seen face on. You can find it in Ursa Major, and it’s an absolute gem.
An hour of imaging here. Noise reduction by Seestar, black point and definition tweaks

Not quite a #SilentSunday given all the birdsong! But this was a very restful walk indeed. A lovely Oxfordshire flood meadow in full bloom.

So just below M86 here is a wee smudge of pixels. They are vaguely pinkish (zoomed in here so the colour is an artefact).
Those pixels a PGC169281 a galaxy that is A) travelling away from us at 11% the speed of light & B) is 2 BILLION light years away!
Blows my mind. Photons travelled for 2+ BILLIO

In 2020 I turned a cheap (wine fuelled) purchase of an above ground pool into one surrounded by raised flower beds and a decking area. It was a Covid lockdown project.
Its 9pm. Its still 30 degrees out, and this is the best DIY project I'…
I'm lucky that I have a sash window. So i used a piece of thin mdf (cardboard not really strong enough tbh) and cut two holes to take the input and exhaust vent.

And here is the widefield view of the conjunction with Mercury highlighted once again. #Astrophotography
Just a beautiful evening to photograph the #conjunction of #venus and #Jupiter (feat. special guest planet #Mercury )
This was taken around 22.30 BST from the windmill at Brill in Oxfordshire.

Quick opportunist handheld smartphone snap of Venus and Jupiter sailing into the west. Beautiful planetary conjunction #Astrophotography
Fancier pics with windmills in them tomorrow

It's #Sunday and we could all do with a cheer up.
So here's a picture I took of a brown Labradoodle?? Sitting in the passenger seat of an Austin Seven and keeping her/his hoomin company at a classic car meetup.
Yes those are actual flyin…

About
Refugee from The Winchester. Amateur lot of things including astronomy, photography, and mucking about with classic cars (owner). Leccy car owner. Owned by two cats, slept on by a beagle, shed on by a Golden and tolerated by Mrs S. Head of Technology Strategy at The IET. If this takes off, it'll be the starry nights, Scholarly Publishing, bits of old MGA, a rant or two. Bit of F1, and probably a loathing of the Tories /GOP
