New Faint Fuzzies!

14 September 2009

Laura and I had a great imaging session this last weekend, and the result is three new photos of deep space objects (aka “Faint Fuzzies”).

The first is spiral galaxy NGC 7331. Note that the “faint fuzzy” spots above NGC 7331 are actually several other galaxies 10 times farther away:

Next up is NGC 7635 aka “The Bubble Nebula”:

And finally we have IC 5146, aka “The Cocoon Nebula”:

I’ll post more details on these photos (details on the photographic subject, how the photos were taken, etc.) in the next few days.

For now, enjoy!
