I continue to be amazed at the images I can get with the Dwarf 3 smart telescope in my backyard. Light pollution is prevalent here, but the little guy produces some great shots:


Triangulum Galaxy


Double Cluster


Owl Cluster


Wizard Nebula

Great photos. Can you elaborate on your setup and procedure?

Sure. I'm using a Dwarf 3 Smart Telescope, mounted on a standard camera tripod. I use the telescope's app on my phone to achieve an equatorial alignment (best for long exposures). After that, it's using the atlas in the app to find the best targets of the night. The scope aligns to the target and you tell it to start. Then I check on it periodically to see how the image stacking is progressing.

Do you know if there's a ton of post processing too? Asking because you mentioned light pollution, so I'm wondering if there's tons of enhance on the backend
