Starting a Deep Sky Gallery

After NEOWISE, I  am getting more interested in learning deep sky astrophotography.

With a recently acquired Astrophysics 92mm F6.65 Stowaway and a 0.8x field reducer/corrector, I really don’t have excuses.

Here are the first two images taken from my light-polluted backyard that I am quite happy about: M27, Dumbbell planetary nebula, and M13, the Hercules globular cluster.

The camera used was an unmodified Sony A7RII, no filter, 100 x 30s exposures at ISO 800 (to avoid the star-eating problem…).
