UPDATE
The forum will be moving to a new domain in the near future (canonrumorsforum.com). I have turned off "read-only", but I will only leave the two forum nodes you see active for the time being. I don't know at this time how quickly the change will happen, but that will move at a good pace I am sure. ------------------------------------------------------------

The other thread ended up with a bit too much discussion on the topic of astrophotography and the related gear. Figured a new, clean one, dedicated just to the imagery, would be good.
Please, feel free to share your own images as well! (If you already shared some in the old thread, maybe re-share them here, hopefully we can keep this topic free of astrophotography gear and technique related discussion, and just keep it on the images.)
Here are some of my images, produced with some dedicated astrophotography equipment (german equatorial tracking mount, or GEM, guiding telescope and camera, etc.) All of these were created from mid Feb. 2014 through the end of March. 2014.
Star Clusters
The Pleiades (Seven Sisters), in Taurus:
Original Attempt
Second Attempt (deeper exposures, softer detail due to tracking issues)
M35 and NGC2158, in Gemini
Nebula
Horse Head and Flame Nebulas, In Orion:
Orion Nebula (M42 & M43) and Running Man, in Orion:
Rosette Nebula, in Monoceros (Unicorn):
Original Processing
Reprocessed in PixInsight
Galaxies
M101 (Pinwheel Galaxy), in Ursa Major:
M81, M82 and NGC3077, in Ursa Major:
M51, in Canes Venatici:
Leo Triplet (NGC3628, M65, M66) & NGC3593, in Leo:
