Very good captures Ballard.
I would also like to say "WOW"
Wow Gorgeous images !!! Thank you for sharing. Shang
Visited Grass Valley a couple of times when my Dad lived in Auburn. (Actually he lived off of 49 about half way between Auburn and Grass Valley.) Took my Celestron 6 in. refractor with me one year.

Yep. I've got a few deep sky pictures. I just retired and plan to take a lot more. These pictures are OK and the objects are recognizable but not really top notch yet. Below in order is M27(dumbbell nebula), M20(triffid nebula), M8 (lagoon Nebula), Comet lovejoy, two shots of M31 (Andromeda galaxy) at slightly different magnification, M57 (ring nebula), M33 (pinwheel galaxy) and M42 (Orion Nebula).
Lovely M series !!! Thank you for sharing. Shang
