DwarfLab Dwarf mini - Gallery

Introduction | Photos | Links

On the gallery pages, I present my so far "best" photos taken with my DwarfLab Dwarf mini (at the moment, all of them...).

Introduction

On this page I would like to present my "best" photos taken with my DwarfLab Dwarf mini. As hopefully new celestial objects and maybe better photos of the objects will be added in the future, this page will be a "work in progress".

Note: The frames were exposed with 15 seconds and the mosaic/EQ frames with 30 seconds unless noted otherwise.
