Astrophotography!

Astrophotography Gallery

Here are some of the (many) photos taken by our members! Most were taken using the Society's RedCat51 telescope, and processed with Siril, Graxpert, and StarNet. Enjoy! This page is a work in progress currently - hence the very small selection of images. Fullscreen mode works best on PC currently - I'm working to fix it for portrait mode on mobile devices.
