deep-sky imaging by Peter Bresseler

techniques

lucky imaging and conventional CCD imagingMy vision, use well matched equipment, no autoguiding, no stress and achieve good, deep and detailed results from my urban location Hamburg. Have fun with lucky imaging and fast CMOS Cams :)

currently, I am working with an ASI294MC pro and ASI290mm mini. Here my first light, it is from 2013 NGC 2392
