I took a chance to get a last picture of this season when I got to Gothenburg. The expression “a shot in the dark” got a new meaning this night as the skies was getting to bright to capture deep sky objects with good results. Anyway I decided to try capture Jupiter next the the open star cluster M67. I used my ordinary DSLR with the zoom lens mounted on the Astrotrac. In the rush to get all done and go to bed I forgot to take darks so the resulting picture is quite noisy 🙁

I have just added a new TIMELAPSE movie to the library. Me and Jakob put it together last night using material from our last astronomy session at Ekerö 13th &14th of March.

I am quite pleased with the result and those of you who don´t know what astrophotography is all about could get a glimpse here.
