Great seeing had been forecast at a site 75 minutes north of where I live for July 4th. I was up at 4am and after setting up at dawn discovered the seeing was only average. Despite that I got some nice photos from about 7-9am mountain time. Here's a montage of some of the better ones, along with a short time lapse of an active region. Fascinating stuff.

For these images I used my new solar setup based on my TEC160FL refractor. Will be publishing a special video on it soon.

$Relaxing Astronomy Photos Oct 2024 A relaxing series of 4K photos of deep space objects, planets and the Moon accompanied by calming music. These are all real astrophotos; nothing artificial or AI is shown. Most photos were taken by me in Arizona or Namibia. For a few I used Telescope.live data, and processed the images myself. Most images are shown in actual real colors using a color camera. Some images (notably the predominantly green ones) are narrowband images where Hydrogen is mapped to green using the Hubble palette. All images were processed using Affinity Photo. Like what you see? Follow me @azastroguy on all popular social media platforms. I post daily on Instagram, Threads and Facebook.
