Here are some images taken with my Celestron Origin. This 6-inch smart telescope has some amazing capabilities that are built into the package. Most of the images below are stacked and processed with the Origin app. Some have been processed using Siril. Most of these pictures were all taken from a suburban Florida site that has a lot of light pollution though some are taken at a darker site in western North Carolina. So far all of the pictures were taken using the clear filter. Questions/comments? Contact Steve with comments and suggestions. Check out my weather modeling pages. |

O are images processed using the Celestron Origin app. S are images stacked and processed by Steve using Siril [JOSS paper] and scripts from Deep Space Astro.
