Messier 82 with a GOTO dobson
The star Bursting galaxy 💥💥
This took 13 hours of exposure time with a narrowband filter that specifically captures H alpha (ionized hydrogen) data. What makes it even a more rewarding capture for me is that i used an altaz mounted Goto dobsonian to capture it!

🌑 A solitary beacon in the vast darkness. ✨
Taking advantage of the crisp December air to capture the waxing gibbous in all its glory. This shot was a true test of stability—captured handheld at full zoom (200mm) with a slow shutter of 1/40s. No tripod, just a steady hand and a bit of editing magic to cut through the atmospheric glow and reveal the crater details on the terminator line.
