I mean sure, WW3 has been cooking for a while now

Not if everyone buys it, because then we'd all look the same

I'm sorry to hear that. My comment was in no way trying to demean yours or anyone's personal struggle. There's real assholes out there. Stay strong.

Oh, save the tears brave soul, that's a funny dad trolling their child the same as always. They're gonna be fine.

So the plan is to concentrate people in military camps. What a novel idea.

Apple, Qualcomm, Nvidia, AMD and Intel are using TSMC to produce some, most or all of their chips currently. Shutting down TSMC or controlling its allocation will hurt many countries right now.

Seeing as TSMC is currently scaling up fab production in the US with their new fabs means they're feeling that pressure and made the deal with the promise of US protecting them.

However, seeing as the current US administration is all over the place and Nvidia started selling to China again, I wouldn't count on US risking all out war to protect Taiwan anymore.

The moment China produces its first class-leading semiconductor node they're gonna pounce on Taiwan immediately, because that leaves everyone else behind.

The problem is always "the others" that aren't "us". Mankind's inherent tribalism will be its downfall.

Thank you! Yeah the 12mm is very forgiving in long exposures and winds shaking the tripod, though you can see both trailing and wind shake in the stars if you zoom all the way in.

I'll try tracking it with the 12mm at some point, it should allow for over 2min individual exposures without trailing!

Thank you so much! I could see lots of details with my eyes, it's a properly dark spot there! You can't see any of the colors, but you see the shapes in the nebulosity pretty clearly.

Bonus single shot of my tent under a tree

 

There's about 30 x 22 sec lights for the sky, pasted over a 2,5 min single shot of the foreground.

Shot with a stock Sony a6000 and a Samyang 12mm f2.0, untracked, under Bortle 3 skies.

Stacking was done in Siril and the rest in Photoshop.

Feedback appreciated!

Trifid and Lagoon (infosec.pub)
submitted 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) by Zer0_F0x@lemmy.world to c/astrophotography@lemmy.world
 

My first attempt at the Trifid and Lagoon nebulae!

A few minutes worth of 30sec exposures, 10 darks (had to leave in a hurry) and 20 flats/bias.

Edit: Shot with a 500mm f6.3 camera lens and a stock Sony A6000 on a Star Adventurer.

Edited with Siril, then Starnet++, then Photoshop and some minor adjustments in Lightroom.

Feedback appreciated!

 

My first time trying to shoot the Horse Head nebula! I have a stock Sony a6000, which cuts out most of the hydrogen red signal, but thankfully enough got through to at least make this a solid attempt.

The data is about 45 minutes worth of 30 second exposures out of my Sony and a Ttartisan 500mm f6.3 lens, on a star tracker.

Due to the very limited total integration time and the stock camera I had to stretch pretty far while fending off artifacts here and there.

Overall I'll take it, will revisit in the future.

Feedback appreciated!

 

My 5th time trying to image a seemingly easy target with something being off... This time I must have nudged the lens out of focus slightly and there was some dew forming on the lens that I hadn't noticed. This hobby sure has a steep learning curve!

Still, decided to not throw away the whole attempt and did a quick processing. It's about 45 minutes worth of 30 sec exposures at 500mm f6.3.

Feedback appreciated!

 

63 x30 sec tracked, 10 of each calibration frames. Stock Sony A6000, ISO 1600. 500mm f8 ish with a ttartisan lens.

Feedback appreciated!

 

73x30 sec of the Orion nebula, with a stock Sony a6000 and a ttartisan 500mm f6.3 on a StarAdventurer.

Lens was wide open, which introduced lots of aberrations on the brightest stars. Will try stopping down next time. Also, focus wasn't perfect and I had some dew issues.

No calibration frames, either, I was just testing the lens for the first time.

Stacked in Siril, stretched in photoshop, final touches in Lightroom.
