- 15 Best Fall Astrophotography Targets for September, October, and November
92 and the Great Pegasus Cluster Messier 15. Messier 92 is coming towards us at a speed of 69miles/s. It is not very far from another cluster, Messier 2. In pictures, you will be able to also see two of M31's satellite galaxies, Messier 32 and Messier 110 Messier 31 is also a great fit for wide-field astrophotography with just a DSLR camera and a lens.

- M59 & M60 - Two Elliptical Galaxies in Virgo
Messier 59 and Messier 60 are two elliptical galaxies in the constellation Virgo. Virgo is one of the busiest constellations in the sky and the area around these two Messier objects is Messier 60, once again captured by the Hubble Space Telescope as seen on the right, is even more massive Messier 60 is bright enough to be seen with any telescope. Below is a crop on both Messier objects as seen in our own photograph.
- M81 & M82 - Bode's Galaxy & The Cigar Galaxy
Spiral galaxy Messier 81 and starburst galaxy Messier 82 are two galaxies often photographed together 81 and Messier 82 in infrared. Craig is a pretty cool guy so he said yes. 😎 The area around Messier 81 and Messier 82 is fairly easy Do Messier 81 and Messier 82 interact with one another? The answer is yes. Messier 81 has a very strong gravitational pull, and its tidal forces do impact Messier 82.

- M97 & M108 - The Owl Nebula and Surfboard Galaxy Astrophotography
Messier 97 and Messier 108 were both discovered in February 1781 by Pierre Méchain. Messier 108 is seen almost edge-on, giving it the look of a surfboard. The nickname of Messier 97, the Owl, was given by William Parson in 1848 after the drawing he made of 97 and Messier 108 were captured during our 12th Episode of Galactic Hunter! Final Thoughts The Owl Nebula and Surfboard Galaxy are often overlooked as "boring" Messier objects mostly

- Broadband Astrophotography from a WHITE zone - It’s POSSIBLE!
We imaged the globular cluster Messier 56 for just one hour, and we honestly did not believe it would case you were not convinced that this was taken without filters... we made a video about capturing Messier The image of Messier 51 below was taken with a RASA 8, ASI294MC camera and the L-Pro filter. Picking Messier 42 feels a bit like cheating though because it is by far the easiest nebula to capture Below is our image of Messier 42, one hour only without filters and from a Bortle 9 backyard!
