Quadrantids on Saturday Night were pretty impressive. This is from my NW facing Camera RMS UK00DE from South Cheshire. Ignore the aircraft trails, the software does. #astro #meteor

Looks lovely in colour, something that a minion image just can't convey. Here is my mono image, a stack of 100 x 30 second exposures

A WL and a Ha from this morning. Nothing spectacular but its nice to see that the Northern Hemisphere is now catching up on spots (Double Peak) after being dormant for a great deal of last year

Day 5 of my Global Meteor Detection System. Just one camera at the moment but some nice Perseids captured last night despite the cloud cover and moonlight. #meteor #perseids @southcheshireastro.bsky.social

Moon and Venus conjunction. A bit of a grab shot as cloud and rain was rolling in. 2 mins later, they were gone. It looks dim, but the moon is correctly exposed. DSLR and 400mm lens

Jupiter. 20250102 Probably my best image yet. Ganymede and Io are the two moons visible.
