The Crescent nebula NGC6888/Caldwell 27, 5000 light years away in the constellation of Cygnus, Looks like a brain!! #astronomy #astrophotography #smarttelescope

It's nice to meet your heroes @PeterLewis55 😉, good to meet up again Pete, safe travels😀. #ironbridge #shropshire @peterlewis55.bsky.social
@DavidBflower, Here's a few images taken with the Dwarf Mini and Dwarf 3 smart telescope from DwarfLabs each image is between 2 and 5 hours of exposures using multinight sessions through the megastack feature. For such small devices they make some fantastic images👍 astronomy #astrophotography 🔭
The mornings full Worm moon,(or part of it due to cloud) as it set behind the local farmhouse #astronomy #moon #photography
A fiery looking Orion Nebula, M42. Just 28 minutes with the impressive Dwarflabs Mini smart telescope. #astronomy #astrophotograpy
This is a first for me, not the galaxy M33, but the short solid line at the bottom which is the asteroid Eros approx 10 miles diameter, it's spud like in shape and currently 40 million miles away, it was visited in 1998 by the probe NEAR Shoemaker. #astronomy #dwarfmini

A beautiful moon halo/ moon rainbow sitting high in the sky above the 900 year old Abbey Church in Shrewsbury, UK #photography #astronomy
A 19 hour stack on andromeda, M31. Shot with the amazing astro device from DwarfLabs, the Dwarf 3, and processed with only free photo editing apps on my phone
Aurora overhead in Shrophire, UK at 4am today, a watery sky made it very diffuse, yet it made for an unusual moon halo looking south east #aurora #astronomy #spaceweather
Another process of Andromeda, Messier 31, our galactic neighbour, as it was 2.3 million years ago If it was bright enough to see in the night sky, it would be as long as six moons side by side. #astronomy #astrophotograpy
Last nights view of comet C/2025 A6 Lemmon over Shropshire, a dwarf3 smartscope close up view and 50mm dslr views mixing it up with starlinks as it heads towards the sun #comet #astronomy 🔭
Comet C/2025 A6 (Lemmon) is near the star Epsilon Boötis (Izar) early this evening. Catch it low to the west as soon as it gets dark. It sets around 22:00 UT (23:00 BST). The comet could be naked eye visible and will be a fine sight in binoculars or a telescope. #Astrophotography #Astronomy
A night of two Comets C/2025 A6 Lemmon and the much greener comet C/2025 R2 Swan seen on 21.10.2025 from my Shropshire garden ☄️☄️ #Astrophotography #astronomy
M33 Triangulum, the third largest member of our local group of galaxies and just a little further at 2.73 million light years than M31 at 2.2 million light years #astronomy #astrophotograpy #smarttelescope #dwarf3
A few of September's astro highlights with the dwarf3 smartscope. The collage contains Andromeda galaxy, the Coathanger, the Teddy Bear, Pacman, Horsehead & Flame & Dark Shark nebula Its an amazing device👍 #smarttelescope #astrophotography 🔭
Hidcote Manor, Gloucestershire, a beautiful place to stop for a visit in the Cotswolds. #photography #nationaltrust #photohour
M31, Andromeda Galaxy our closest galactic neighbour at 2.5 million light years away Every star you see is in our own milkyway #astronomy #astrophotography 🔭 #dwarf3 #smartscope
Fortunatley, after a long wait, the moon found the gap My first view this cycle and its 12.5% lit waxing crescent #astronomy #moon 🔭
This is Caldwell 11, the bubble nebula that really looks like its name when zoomed in. With the nearby scorpion cluster, M52, also in frame on the left and NGC7538 emission nebula on the right, home to a protostar that is the size of 300 solar systems!!! (wiki) #astronomy #astrophotograpy
This is the crescent nebula C27 located at the heart of the constellation of Cygnus, Formed by strong stellar wind of HD192163, a Wolf Rayet star, a hot old massive star rapidly losing mass. #astronomy #astrophotograpy
M8, the lagoon nebula, first time I've imaged this, Its the 2nd brightest nebula in the night sky, it was only 11 degrees high and doesn't get much higher for me, so I'm pretty pleased with how the Dwarf 3 smartscope caught this, all in just 9 minutes 30 seconds of data #astronomy 🔭 #smarttelescope

The little #Dwarf3 #smartscope has been busy in July, and even under a full moon the scope has been superb and such a joy to use 👍 The Heart and Soul nebulas. The Elephants Trunk nebula and Pacman nebula Processed in Dwarflabs Stellar Studio, PSexpress and Snapseed #Astrophotography #Astronomy
The Andromeda Galaxy, our nearest intergalactic neighbour at 2.5 million light years distant, as it rushes towards our own Milky Way to merge in 4.5 billion years (wiki). 1hr 56 minutes of data from the Dwarf3 info in alt #astronomy #astrophotography
